Don’s Slow Cooker Chicken (breast) Method

When I interviewed Don and Mary Rickley for a cooking article for the Abilene Reflector-Chronicle (March 29, 2011), Don offered up this easy method for preparing chicken breasts.

Use cooked chicken in Junior League Chicken Salad or in any casserole dish; chicken may also be packed and frozen for later use.

Lawry’s® seasoned salt (or substitute favorite seasoning blend)

Ground black pepper

Water

1. Put 4 chicken breasts, sprinkled with Lawry’s® seasoned salt and ground pepper. in an aluminum foil package; seal foil by folding over to create an airtight seal (see explanation of Drugstore Wrap and diagram that follows). 
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Stack additional packages on top of the first. 
   
3. Put a little water in the bottom of the slow cooker so they don’t cook dry – just enough to cover the bottom.
4. Cook  on LOW in a slow cooker all day. The breasts will come out very tender.
