Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lbs (680g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 medium lemon, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon dried Italian herb blend
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) chicken broth

Instructions:

  1. Lightly grease the bottom of the crock pot to prevent sticking.
  2. Arrange lemon slices on the bottom of the crock pot. Place chicken breasts on top of the lemon slices.
  3. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, Italian herb blend, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the herb mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated.
  5. Pour chicken broth into the crock pot around the chicken breasts.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  7. If desired, shred the chicken with two forks directly in the crock pot.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley (if using) and serve immediately.
