Dinner
Pin It!

It’s so hard for me to show you in pictures how amazing this dinner was and how flavorful it turned out.  The broth and chicken over rice was so delicious.  We ate the leftovers for days!  My boys picked around the green beans, but really enjoyed the chicken and potatoes.

Break out the crock pots again friends, this recipe makes a wonderful Sunday dinner!

Here’s most of the ingredients you’ll need to start the recipe.

I LOVE what the lemon does to the chicken.  Just enough citrus without being overpowering.

The fresh parsley and thyme give such freshness.

Alright, first things first.  Place your chicken breasts and potatoes into your crock pot.

Add your garlic cloves.

Your pretty lemon slices.

A handful of fresh French green beans aka hericot vert.

Add your broth.

Some pretty pearl onions, salt and pepper.  Cover with the lid and let this baby cook slow and low.

Alright, when the chicken is cooked, remove it from the crock pot and shred into bite size pieces.  Put back into the pot.

Add some honey and Dijon mustard please.

Add your parsley, thyme, stir and eat!

    Do you just leave the lemon slices in there? Don’t the peels get in the way?

    G says:

    Do you keep the garlic cloves in the dish or do you remove them when you shred the chicken?

    I made this yesterday and it was absolutely delicious. I’m not really a fan of Dijon mustard or green beans,but I still liked it (and didn’t even have to pock around the green beans) and my husband LOVED it! I cut the recipe in half for the two of us and we still have leftovers to freeze. I served it over rice…definitely coking again!
