I always have chicken in my freezer because it’s cheap and everyone likes it. (We’ve gone through a stretch of time where one of my kids refused to eat anything but chicken.) I’ve made over 1,000 slow cooker recipes over the past six years, and I bet at least half of them involve chicken. As a chicken slow cooker chicken enthusiast, I’ve scoured the web for the best Crock-Pot chicken recipes from some of my favorite bloggers. So let’s get to menu planning and try something new and different…and let’s not forget, easy.
