Notes
SLOW COOKER TIMES
Different slow cooker models may distribute the heat differently and cook the chicken a little faster or slower, so you will have to check on it. Your chicken breasts may take as little as 3-4 hours to cook through, maybe even less if they are small. Check the internal temperature (165º Fahrenheit for chicken) with a meat thermometer. Once the chicken has cooked through you can proceed with the recipe as described above.Nutrition
