Hello friends.....Happy Monday!! I hope your week is off to a good start....things were a little rough around here today....mainly I woke up with a scratchy throat and some pain in my ears......ugh.....
So this morning was not great....I had SO much that I needed to get done while my daughter went to MDO.....but instead I came home and went back to bed.....ummmm.....not great.....I got NOTHING done!! But I do feel some better this afternoon, so hopefully it was worth it.....
Well....in truth.....I did get one thing done.....and I'm SO excited to share.....there is something delicious cooking in my Crock Pot!! Oh man.....it is smelling SO good!! And since we've made it several times already.....I know it is going to be DELICIOUS too! Oh yeah.....happy dance :)
Seriously.....I wish ya'll were here to smell it cooking....YUUUUUUMMMMMM!!
So....here's the skinny on a GREAT recipe for Greek Chicken.....
I got the recipe from an awesome website/FB page called Skinny Ms. Slow Cooker.....if you remember.....I've already shared their Balsamic Chicken recipe HERE and their Moroccan Chicken recipe HERE....
SO.....here's a pic of my dinner plate the last time we had Greek Chicken served over whole grain pasta.....
The chicken is SO tender coming out of the crock pot that it literally just falls apart.....so I took my fork and chopped up the chicken a little.....and then my plate looked like this.....
Ohhh....YUUUUMMM!! SO Delicious!! And....like most of the recipes that I share....SUPER EASY :) Here's the details......copied from the Skinny Ms. Slow Cooker Facebook Page.....
Ingredients:
1 Lemon, Juiced
4 Garlic Cloves, Minced
1/4 Cup Olive Oil
1/2 Cup White Wine
1/4 Cup Chicken Broth
1 tsp Dill
1 tsp Rosemary
1 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
1/4 tsp Pepper
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Whole Chicken, Broken into it's Respective Pieces
Directions:
Add all the ingredients with the exception of the chicken to the marinade. Mix up well. Add in the chicken and coat all the pieces completely. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours.
Serve over noodles with sauce from the slow cooker spooned over the noodles and a little feta and olives for good measure.
SO.....we used boneless skinless chicken breast instead of the whole chicken.....and we don't use the feta cheese or olives (I don't like either one)......but otherwise I follow the recipe completely.....
And here are a few pics of the recipe coming together.....
The ingredients.....
The "marinade" all mixed up.....
And everything put into the slow cooker.....
Let it cook and then when its almost finished cook up a little whole grain pasta......
And soon....you'll have this.....
I can't wait for dinner tonight!! This is such a rich tasting dish.....as the Hubs says......it tastes "fancy"....
So....if your looking for something new to try for dinner.....you should give this baby a try....I don't think you will be disappointed :) And I would love to hear what you think about it.....
Until next time.....
XOXO-
