This is a nice recipe that has a delicate flavor and is easy to make. The three step preparation is all you need to do to have a lovely meal to serve tonight made in your slow cooker while you do something else you need to get done or just take some time out for yourself relaxing.
It's a recipe I have had for awhile and always enjoyed it so I thought I would adapt it to the slow cooker so make it tonight and see if it becomes one your favorites too.
Oregano Chicken with Lemon
1/4 cup plain flour 2 tsp smoked paprika salt and pepper2.5 lbs (1kg) chicken legs (about 8-10) 2 tabs oil 1 lemon cut into 4 8 garlic cloves 4 sprigs fresh oregano
1 large onion cut into 8
1.5 cups chicken stock A little cornflour mixed with water
fresh oregano leaves for garnish
Mix the first 3 ingredients together and then coat the chicken in it. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and brown the chicken legs. Place the chicken in the slow cooker and add the lemon, onion, garlic cloves, oregano sprigs and the stock. Cover and cook on high for 3.5 - 4 hours.
Remove the chicken to the serving plate and thicken the remainder of the contents in the slow cooker with cornflour mix. I like to do this so I have a nice thick sauce to pour over the chicken. I also remove the lemon, the garlic and the oregano sprigs. Finally garnish with chopped oregano leaves.
Serve with rice, polenta or pasta and vegetables. Serves 4.
