I took a favorite recipe and modified it to work in our slow cooker, writes Nancy Rambo of Riverside, California. We enjoy this tender lemony chicken with rice or buttered noodles.
Ingredients:
1 medium onion, chopped
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon each garlic powder, chili powder and paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
4-1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
4-1/2 teaspoons cold water
hot cooked noodles
chopped fresh parsley, optional
Directions:
1. In a greased 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the onion, water, lemon juice, oil and seasonings. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Remove chicken and keep warm.
2. In a saucepan, combine the cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Gradually add the cooking juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with chicken over noodles. Sprinkle with parsley if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
