Slow Cooker Apricot ChickenA delish moist dish the whole family will love!
By Jody Allen
I love Slow Cooker Apricot Chicken.. it bubbles away all day making you so hungry.
And OMG the smell….. you’ll wish it’s dinner time really soon! The kids are huge fans, too.
I love Slow Cooker Apricot Chicken served with mashed potato, it’s also realllyyy yummy with plain rice! But then you can have it on anything!
Using Chicken Breast Versus Chicken Pieces for Slow Cooker Apricot Chicken:
Chicken pieces are so economical, plus meat on the bone is much tastier than chicken breast which can easily dry out on the slow cooker and can taste bland. If you are serving this to kids and they don’t like eating chicken on the bone, cook the chicken pieces, then use a fork to remove the meat – it’s really easy as it will just fall away.
Want Something a Bit Fancier?
If you are wanting a bit more flavour, add a teaspoon of curry powder to the mix – then you have Slow Cooker Curried Apricot Chicken! Delicious!
