    Slow Cooker Creamy Lemon Chicken Spaghetti

    Slow cooker recipes are nice to have for busy days. I am always looking for different ways to make slow cooker chicken breasts because my kids love anything with chicken. Slow cooker Mississippi chicken is another favorite of ours. This lemon chicken has a nice, bright flavor with the help of lemon juice and fresh lemon zest.

    How to make slow cooker creamy lemon chicken:

    • Before you add your chicken to the slow cooker, brown each side in a hot pan. Sprinkle each chicken breast with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
    • Add the chicken to slow cooker and then top with butter, lemon juice, zest and chicken broth. Let the chicken cook for 4-6 hours.
    • Remove the chicken and shred it up. Set aside and add a mixture of cream and cornstarch the the slow cooker. Let it cook for about 10 minutes to thicken up.
    • Add your shredded chicken back in and cooked spaghetti noodles.
