Garlic Herb and Wine Chicken
Are you bored with slow cooker recipes? Then you’ve got to try this chicken recipe!
The chicken breasts cook perfectly in the herbaceous, zesty broth and the herbs soak into the meat. Every bite bursts with flavor, the layers of flavor dancing on your tongue.
As the wine and herb chicken cooks, you’ll smell the herbs as they mingle together. You’ll smell the floral notes in the rosemary, peppery notes in the thyme, and grassy sweetness in the sage.
And the fresh lemon juice brings them all together with the bright and tart flavors. The chicken is so delicious that you’ll be proud to share it with your family or a room full of guests!
Slow Cooker Chicken
Have you ever made chicken breasts in the slow cooker? If you have, then you know how quickly it cooks.
If you set it to high, it will be ready in less than 4 hours. And on low, it will be ready in 6-8 hours.
Don’t let it cook for much longer than that, or else the chicken will taste too soft.
How do you know when the chicken is fully cooked? The best way is with a thermometer.
Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches a temperature of 165F.
Keto Slow Cooker Chicken
If you want to really make the texture of the chicken stand out, then I suggest searing the chicken in a skillet before you place it in the slow cooker.
This will give the chicken breast a perfectly crispy outside and stay juicy on the inside.
I also recommend waiting until right before you serve the chicken to add the parmesan cheese. For the fullest flavor, use freshly-shredded parmesan cheese instead of jarred or bagged cheese.
What To Eat With Chicken
Almost anything will taste delicious with this simple low-carb slow cooker wine and herb chicken. Add something sweet, like basil marinated berries and cottage cheese or keto eggnog custard.
If you want a salad on the side, make either keto southwest salad or some keto Caesar broccoli salad.
Then, serve some keto cottage cheese edible cookie dough for dessert. It’s the perfect thing to finish off a delicious dinner.
