Slow Cooker Split Chicken Breasts with Onions and Mushrooms
I found a great deal on some Split Chicken Breasts the other day so I bought them not knowing how I was going to use them. With most bone-in meats I prefer to use the slow cooker so I started my online research for slow cooker split chicken breasts to see how long I needed to cook them. Then I checked out the fridge to see what we had available and voila this recipe was born.

Ingredients and Substitutions
SPLIT CHICKEN BREASTS – Split chicken breasts are simply chicken breasts left on the bone. They are often available at your grocery store for cheaper than boneless chicken breasts. Because they have bone split chicken breasts will take longer to cook than boneless chicken breasts. This makes them ideal for cooking in the slow cooker. If you can’t find split chicken breast you can use bone-in chicken thighs.
MUSHROOMS & ONIONS – Buy presliced or slice your mushrooms. White button or baby portabella would work with this recipe. Thinly sliced yellow or sweet onions are best for this recipe.
CHICKEN BROTH – Store-bought or homemade chicken broth will keep the chicken moist while it cooks over a long period.

Quality articles is the main to invite the visitors to

You actually make it appear so easy along with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something that I feel
I might never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely wide for me.
I am taking a look ahead on your subsequent submit, I will try
to get the dangle of it!
Great blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a
paid option? There are so many choices out there that
I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Appreciate it!
This design is spectacular! You definitely know how to keep
a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved
to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job.
I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented
it. Too cool!
But when do the mushrooms go in??
I thought perhaps #3 is supposed to read “top chicken with mushrooms”. I’m going to try it that way.
