Do you not add water to the bottom of the crockpot?
No you don’t 🙂
Making this again! And again and again because it is so easy and healthier. We gave up cold cuts for lunches and use this chicken instead. For variety, I have sprinkled in healthy amount of different dried herbs: Italian, rosemary& thyme, dill. I don’t know why the slow cooker feels so much easier to use, but it does. Thanks.
