By carvalhohm2

Ingredients

• 6 bone-in chicken breast halves (about 3 pounds), skin removed
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup water
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
• 2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
• Hot cooked rice

Preparation

Step 1

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Combine the oregano, seasoned salt and pepper; rub over chicken. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the chicken in butter; transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add water, lemon juice, garlic and bouillon to the skillet; bring to a boil, stirring to loosen browned bits. Pour over chicken.

Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours. Baste the chicken. Add parsley. Cover and cook 15-30 minutes longer or until meat juices run clear. If desired, thicken cooking juices and serve over chicken and rice.
