  • 1 tsp dried thyme leaves
  • 1 tsp dried parsley

Preparation
  1. Place the chicken in the center of your slow cooker.

Notes

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can also freeze portions for up to 3 months. For variations, use thighs instead of tenders, add extra veggies, or make it vegan by replacing the chicken with chickpeas and using olive oil instead of butter.
