Join the discussionThis has got to be my new favorite OAMC recipe! Everyone raved about it! I was hoping for leftovers but that’s not happening
WWAAAYYYY too much lemon pepper seasoning! My chicken was black from it (didn’t look anything like the photo above) and very spicey. I think maybe 5 tsp would be fine instead. And 8 hours on low made the chicken dry.
Marie – So sorry that the taste wasn’t what you expected. We certainly do appreciate your feedback. It helps us better serve you, the reader!
Hi I was windering if I can put the chicken in the crockpot still frozen? Do you think it will still be good? Thanks, sounds really good. Always looking for easy gfdf recipes.
We don’t recommend it, because it is a “slow” cooker there is a chance that your frozen food will be in the danger zone (40-140 degrees) for longer than 2 hours. This can lead to bacterial growth. https://onceamonthmeals.com/get…
Had this recently and it had to be the best chicken I’ve ever had! Can you cook this on high for half the time? Thanks!!
Yes Kristin – you certainly can do on high to speed up the cooking! Enjoy!
I am going to try this one in the instant pot! I will let you all know how it turns out.
Jane, how was it in the IP?
It was really delicious and it worked out great! I did 10 minutes and then an instant pressure release. I did use butter instead of ghee because I have never worked with it before.
I love my IP and I keep trying new things. My favorite is a 15 bean soup. I just put the soaked beans in the IP with chopped carrots, celery and onion with stock or water. I use the soup or stew button and instant release. It comes out creamy and delicious because some of the smaller beans break down. Super satisfying!
Wonderful, we’re so glad to hear this!! Thank you for sharing!!
I liked it, but my family thought it was too lemony and too dry. I made up 4 of them, so the next one I am going to try baking instead of putting in the crockpot and see if I can get it to be juicier.
Can I use butter instead of Ghee?
Is Ghee available in a regular grocery store?
Yes, you can use butter. Ghee is used to keep this recipe dairy free. It is typically available in traditional grocery stores, usually in the baking aisle by the cooking oils and fats.
