Recipe Steps

steps 4

4 h 15 min

  • Step 1

    Butterfly the chicken breasts and pound them flat to less than a 1-inch thickness. They don’t need to be too thin.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a crock pot. It’s okay if the chicken overlaps slightly. Sprinkle the first amount of salt and pepper, and the onion powder, over the chicken. Remove the leaves of approximately 1 sprig of tarragon and distribute them over the chicken. Arrange 2 slices of lemon on top as well as the butter (cut into small pieces).
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Lay the vegetable medley mix (thawed) over the chicken. Sprinkle the final seasonings over the vegetables.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Cook the crock pot on high for 4 hours. You may also cook on low for 6-8 hours. Mix the ingredients together to distribute the butter and seasonings before serving hot!

    Can we cook this without the lemon

    • recipewriter

      Yes, you can omit any flavor you don't want! Removing the lemon will only reduce your carbohydrates for the full recipe by approx. 3-4g, so very little changes nutritionally without the lemon. Hope this helps!

    I’m new, this looks good but am I supposed to be eating carrots? I haven’t been but if I’m allowed I’ll be eating them for sure, I love carrots

      Hi Cindy, Since the carrots are part of a vegetable medley, the amount per serving is acceptable. This small amount of carrots shouldn't increase your blood sugar dangerously. If you're concerned, you can choose a broccoli/cauliflower mix instead. Hope this helps!

    This sounds really good and easy. Question: can this be done in a pot roast pan in the oven? I think the only thing that needs to be changed would be the cooking time, but by how much?

      Hi there, Using a roasting pan is a great idea! If you're roasting at a low temp (around 300 degrees F), I would suggest cooking for 3-4 hours. However you may need to adjust this time depending on your oven and actual cooking temp. Hope this helps!
