Slow-Cooked Lemon Chicken image

Garlic, oregano and lemon juice give spark to this memorable main dish. It's easy to fix-just brown the chicken in a skillet, then let the slow cooker do the work. I like to serve this dish to company. -Walter Powell, Wilmington, Delaware

This recipe is easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! The sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll try adding a bit more honey next time.

This dish was a bit too tangy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think I'll try adding a bit more honey next time to balance out the flavors.

This lemon chicken is amazing! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it was so moist and flavorful. The sauce is tangy and sweet, and the chicken is cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this again.
