Brighten up your dinner with this Slow Cooked Lemon Turmeric Chicken, where tender chicken simmers in a zesty lemon and earthy turmeric blend. It’s a simple, flavor-packed dish that practically cooks itself while you go about your day!!

The recipe:

Start by adding your chicken breast to the crockpot, along with your butter, broth, lemon, garlic cloves, turmeric, onion powder, pepper, and salt.

Cook on high for 4 hours. Then after the 4 hours, remove from the pot and shred with two forks! It’s super tender and easy to shred!

Remove approximately 2/3 cup of the remaining liquid (and optional add flour) to thicken to a stew consistency. Add your shredded chicken back to the slow cooker for 30-min to an hour to allow all the yummy juices to marinate the chicken.

I paired with a super simple rice + kale for my veggie. For the rice, cook according to directions and the veggies you can literally choose whichever you want and sauté with a simple garlic, salt and pepper combo and it pairs so well with the rich flavors of the chicken!

Enjoy!! xx
