THE BEST EVER CROCK POT LEMON PEPPER CHICKEN
This chicken is my fiance's favorite. It is so easy to make and tastes delicious. I sometimes kick up the flavor by adding paprika, garlic powder and a little cayenne to the soup mix before pouring over chicken. Low fat soup and fat-free or low fat milk works great! You will not be disappointed.

Garlic, oregano and lemon juice give spark to this memorable main dish. It's easy to fix-just brown the chicken in a skillet, then let the slow cooker do the work. I like to serve this dish to company. -Walter Powell, Wilmington, Delaware
