Notes
- For an extra boost of flavor, marinate the chicken overnight before slow-cooking it.
- Avoid using frozen chicken, as it can lead to uneven cooking and potential food safety risks.
- Trim any excess fat from the chicken before cooking to prevent a greasy texture.
- For added flavor, you can also add herbs, spices, and vegetables to the slow cooker.
- Don't lift the lid during the cooking process, as this can lower the temperature and increase the cooking time.
- Always store leftover chicken in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. You can also store some leftover portions in zip loc freezer bags for some homemade WW freezer meals.
