Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Gather all the ingredients for your Crockpot Chicken Piccata, including chicken breasts, broth, lemon juice, capers, garlic, salt, pepper, and parsley.
  2. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot, ensuring they are arranged evenly and not overcrowded.
  3. Pour the chicken broth over the chicken, then drizzle fresh lemon juice, and sprinkle minced garlic around the chicken.
  4. Scatter the capers evenly over the top, allowing all ingredients to infuse their flavors into the chicken.
  5. Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the top, adjusting according to your taste preferences.
  6. Cover the crockpot and set to cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
  7. Check the internal temperature of the chicken for doneness (at least 165°F or 75°C) before shredding.
  8. Remove the chicken from the crockpot, shred into bite-sized pieces, and mix back with the juices.
  9. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with pasta, rice, or a salad.
