Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh lemons and garlic will give your dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to use half the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can become dry and tough if they are overcooked. Cook them on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a good quality rice: A good quality rice will cook evenly and have a nice texture. Jasmine rice or basmati rice are both good choices.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to your dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, and broccoli.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste your dish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
