Greek Chicken with Green Beans image

My Greek grandmother made the most delicious Greek chicken and green beans with a lemon-tomato flavor. Whenever I make this slow-cooker recipe, I think of her. The juices from the chicken help flavor the green beans, but the beans can be prepared alone as a side dish without the chicken. -Elizabeth Lindemann, Driftwood, Texas

I'm not a fan of chicken breast, so I used chicken thighs in this recipe. It turned out just as good!

This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time, I'll use less red pepper flakes.

I'm allergic to garlic, so I substituted onion powder in this recipe. It still turned out great!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a great meal to freeze for later.
