This is one of the easiest one pot chicken dinners and the chicken is juicy
and delicious.
I'm Tess and welcome to my kitchen.
This is an easy and basic recipe that has lots of flavor and is very
satisfying. It is a one pot chicken dinner in the slow cooker. Anyone can
make this. So let's get started. I have four nice size split chicken breasts
that I washed and trimmed. I'm placing those on the bottom of my slow cooker.
You can use thighs or legs or even a whole chicken. I like using bone-in chicken
when cooking in the slow cooker as it remains moist and juicy with great
flavor.
Next are the veggies and I'm using some basic vegetables that most people have
on hand.
Those are potatoes and I have some have red potatoes.
I'm adding a small onion, diced celery and some mini carrots.
I've kept all the veggies a nice rustic bite-sized so they hold up in a slow
cooker.
Next to the spices and i'm adding a liquid and I'm making my own vinaigrette.
For a substitute you can use three quarters to 1 cup of your favorite
Italian or Greek salad dressing. To make mine i'm using olive oil and adding some
fresh lemon juice. The lemon juice really shines through and gives this dish some
depth and brightness. I'm also adding some red wine vinegar.
I like the flavor and tang it gives. You could skip the red wine vinegar and just
use all lemon juice. Now for the spices. I have some oregano, onion powder, minced
garlic and a little salt and black pepper. Giving that a good whisk. Pouring
all that flavor and goodness over the veggies and chicken.
How easy is that?! Covering and cooking on high for 4 hours and if you're using
the low setting cook for 8 hours. I'm going to be home so I'm going to give
the veggies a quick stir once or twice being careful not to let out too much
heat.

It's been 4 hours and it's ready to eat. The kitchen smells wonderful!
I'm removing the chicken and veggies and letting it rest for 15 to 20 minutes
before serving. A great and hearty meal for 4. I'm pouring a little of that
awesome broth over the chicken and veggies. Make sure you have a bowl of
that broth available at the table in case anybody wants extra. We usually have
a loaf of italian bread or garlic bread on the side to help sop up that golden
and delicious broth.
It also makes a yummy gravy. You can also serve the chicken and vegetables with
some cooked noodles tossed in that delicious broth.
This slow cooker one pot chicken dinner is so easy and comforting. Very simple to
prepare using basic vegetables and chicken.
Anyone can make this! The chicken and veggies just absorbed all the great
flavors from the dressing, produced its own juices and created a delicious
broth. As you can see the chicken is moist and juicy. You are going to love
this one pot chicken dinner.
It's a winner! Hope you give this one a try.
And until next time, enjoy.
