Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken II Recipe

10/30/2003

YUMMY! This was incredible! I used bottled lemon juice since I didn't have any lemons on hand and it was still great. I also used the boillon and it was fine. I did double the amount of sauce and thicken it with a little cornstarch at the end. But oh my -- this is definitely going into regular rotation!:-)

This came out excellent with modifications! The amount of seasonings in the recipe is not nearly enough. ( I DID LEAVE OUT THE SALT!) I sprinkled onion pwder on the chicken as well before browning. I added more oregano garlic and pepper - didn't measure just went by eye & to my liking. I added a 1/2 sweet onion fresh basil juiced one whole lemon added one cup white wine & added about 3 tablespoons fresh parsley. I also used a cup of chicken broth AND a 1/2 teaspoon of chicken boullion for extra flavor. It came out PERFECT and was not salty AT ALL!! Great GREAT flavor!! Served it over a brown rice mix. =) YUM!

This dish was very very good. I omitted the water and bouillon and used 1/4 cup of chicken broth instead and it worked wonderfully. The garlic and lemon truly infuse the chicken which becomes incredibly tender in the slow cooker. My only caveat would be that the chicken was somewhat bland--it's not a very piquant dish. (I'm love strong flavors but this isn't a characteristic slow cooking usually imparts.) Nonetheless I'll definitely make this again.

I always read the reviews before I fix one of the Daily Recipes. Based on the reviews I browned the chicken then used half of a small onion and browned it and the garlic. I used 2 cups of water 2 generous teaspoons of the chicken bouillon and then followed the recipe the rest of the way it was written. This was practically inhaled by my family. I make this every 6 to 8 weeks and get rave reviews every time. Thanks for sharing Carla Joy.

I used about a cup of homeade turkey broth instead of the granules and added about 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice. It was very good with my alterations.

This was terrific! The chicken was so moist and just fell apart. I cooked it on high for 3 hours. I did make 2 cups of chicken broth the juice from one lemon 4 cloves of garlic and some white wine. I forgot to boil that mixture before putting it in the crock pot but I can't tell what I was missing. The key is browning the chicken before putting it into the pot. I would suggest using olive oil instead of butter and putting the garlic in for the last 2 minutes to get the full flavor. I also shred the chicken and let it soak up the juices for awhile before serving - yummy! We used the juice to pour over the chicken. This was a great meal to come home to with hardly any effort! It will be in my monthly dishes from now on.

This chicken comes out so tender that you can't even cut it without it falling apart! I seasoned the chicken with lemon pepper seasoning before the oregano mixture and used garlic salt instead of regular. Then instead of bouillon granules I used about 1 to 1 1/2 cups of chicken stock. The flavor was incredible and I've never had chicken turn out so tender!

I took a lot of the advice from other reviews. Namely use at least 2x the seasoning but cut the salt use a couple tablespoons lemon pepper add wine and use a can of broth. Cooked it for 3 hrs on high and it came out moist. One addition if you like them is to add capers when you simmer the broth with cornstarch to make a sauce. Added just enough pizzaz to this recipe to make it keeper.

Did a few things others suggested. Did not brown just put all the makings (except the chicken) into a pot and brought it to a boil then poured it over the raw chicken in the slow cooker. Also replaced water with 1 cup chicken broth and added 1/4 cup white wine - doubled lemon juice garlic and chicken bouillon granules. Cut cooking time to 4 hours on low. Had plenty of liquid the chicken was very tasty and moist. Will definitely make again!!
