Crockpot Lemon Chicken Ingredients
– Chicken: You can use bone-in or boneless chicken thighs. It’s up to you.
– Heavy cream: You can also use cream of mushroom soup if you prefer.
– Garlic: You’ll want to use fresh garlic for this. Dried isn’t the best option.
– Lemon: I used fresh lemons but you can also substitute lemon juice out of a bottle if that’s all you have on hand. I also zest the lemon.
– Butter: You can use salted or unsalted. I always use salted butter on my savory recipes.
– Mustard: I personally love dijon mustard because it has a sweet flavor, but you can use any kind of mustard.
– Chicken Stock: This makes the sauce nice and creamy. I get the regular full fat version of chicken broth.
– Italian seasoning: You can use oregano if you prefer, but I love the flavor Italian seasoning adds to recipes. If you have fresh basil on hand, add a tablespoon of that in as well!
– Salt and pepper: Fresh sea salt and freshly ground pepper are my favorite.
