Crock Pot Lemon Chicken

This is a delicious crock pot dinner but one that is NOT cooked all day,  only for three  hours. I made this one Sunday afternoon and we just loved it  I served it with rice and it was terrific for dinner. The next day I sliced it and put into a wrap for lunch!  I love it when that happens!!

INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup all purpose flour
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into thirds
1/4 cup butter
1 dry packet of good seasonings italian dressing mix
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken broth
salt
pepper

DIRECTIONS
Set your crock pot on low. Lightly coat the chicken in flour. (I do this in a large Ziploc bag) set aside.  Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. When the butter is melted, add a portion of your chicken (don’t crowd the pan as it brings the heat down). Season your chicken with salt and pepper. Cook your chicken for three to four minutes on each side, just enough to get golden brown on each side. When your first batch is done remove from pan and put in the crock pot and continue with your second batch of chicken. When your chicken is complete and it is all in the crock pot, add the lemon juice, chicken broth and dry seasoning to the crock pot. Mix slightly and cook for three hours.

Enjoy!
