  1. Anne says:

    Can’t wait to try this one – my family loved lemon & garlic, and I love the crockpot. It’s a win-win!

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      Fantastic… ENJOY!

  2. Elizabeth says:

    Should the crockpot be covered for both methods – 3rh and 6hr? Thanks!

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Elizabeth ~ yes, covered for both methods. Enjoy! 🙂

  3. Jamie White says:

    Hi, I couldn’t find the cream of chicken with herbs. What spices do you think I should add to substitute.

    1. Yessi says:

      Good question. I also only found the regular cream of chicken and cream of mushroom.

      1. MEG says:

        I also had on hand both soups without herbs (and only lemon juice). It came out too bland. Otherwise, delicious. I encourage you to add spices!

  4. Natalie says:

    Can you add any vegetables or potatoes to the crockpot? I’d love to make it a one pot deal!

    1. Heidi says:

      I haven’t tried, Natalie… but if you do, let me know how it turns out!

  5. Alina says:

    Is it ok to cook everything together at once? Instead of waiting to add the rest of the ingredients after 3 hours?

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Alina ~ you’ll end up with a much thicker, more delicious sauce if adding it at the end. Hope that helps!

      1. Carrie says:

        I add white wine so I cook it all together from the beginning and it’s delicious.

  6. Ami says:

    I can’t wait to try this, thanks! Do you think it’s ok to use fresh boneless chicken thighs?

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Ami ~ yes… boneless thighs should work as well! You may just need to alter the time a bit, so just keep an eye on them as they’re cooking. 😉

  7. kimberly says:

    Before reading the instructions, I simply put everything in the crockpot! Yikes! Do you still think it will be okay on low?

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      It will be okay, but the reason you’ll want to drain the juices off the chicken in the future is that you’ll end up with a much richer, thicker, more flavorful sauce. 🙂

  8. Julie says:

    Can you use something else in place of the cream of mushroom? Not a fan of them.

    1. Nora Dolan says:

      Same here, so I’ll try cream of celery

      1. Julie Dumer says:

        How did it turn out okay?

  9. Dana says:

    Step 1 – Do you simply put the chicken in the crock pot all by itself? I’m wondering if I need to lightly oil the bottom of the crockpot or add a little water so the chicken doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot. This recipe sounds delicious!

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Dana ~ that’s correct… no water or oil is needed, as the chicken will end up cooking in its own juices it releases. Hope that helps!

  10. Fishy says:

    Love finding ir recipes

    1. Heidi says:

      Aww ~ thank you… enjoy the chicken!
