Our Lemon & Thyme Slow Cooker Chicken is a recipe you’re going to want to bookmark right away!
Whip it up in the morning and by dinnertime you’ll have a whole house of delicious smells wafting in from the kitchen. It’s great for the family and company alike. Lemon, thyme, and chicken–the perfect trio of flavors!
Our Lemon & Thyme Slow Cooker Chicken makes enough for 6 servings. We used chicken thighs in our recipe, but feel free to substitute with 6 breasts or 10-12 drumsticks. You could even use one whole cut up chicken, if you prefer. For crispier skin (if you choose to leave it on as we did), just stick our slow cooker chicken under the broiler for a couple minutes.
