How to make Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken & Veggies

Making this recipe is super easy as you just throw everything in the slow cooker!

  1.   Place seasoned chicken breasts on the bottom of the slow cooker, then top the chicken with potatoes, green beans, garlic, butter, seasonings and lemon juice.  Make sure to keep the green beans on the top so they don’t overcook.

 

 

Not only is this garlicky chicken dinner delicious, I love that the entire meal, including sides, is made in the slow cooker! 

That means no extra dishes to wash AND I save time not having to make side dishes!

 

How to serve this chicken and veggies dinner

You can serve this right from the slow cooker, but I like to put everything on a large platter and serve family style for people to help themselves. 

Be sure to pour all the amazing liquid over everything and serve with a spoon so everyone can get more sauce!

This is a great all-in-one meal by itself, but it would be great served with a green salad or baguette.

How to store leftovers

Store leftover chicken & veggies in an air-tight container in the refrigerator and use within 3-4 days.

NOTES:

  • I have only tested this recipe on the “low” setting of the slow cooker.
  • If you don’t have thyme, rosemary would be a good replacement.
