Weight Watchers Recipe of the Day: Slow Cooker Goddess Chicken with Artichokes & Sun-Dried Tomatoes
CrockPot Artichoke Chicken was one of the first recipes I made way back during my Year of WW Friendly Slow Cooking Challenge back in 2013.
It was a huge hit with everyone.
This 4-Ingredient Skinny Slow Cooker Goddess Chicken with Artichokes and Sundried tomatoes is even easier and just as – or maybe even more – delicious.
The secret to the savory lusciousness of this simple crock pot chicken recipe is the Annie’s Naturals Goddess Dressing (affiliate link), which has a delectable creamy tahini-lemon flavor.
Slow Cooker Goddess Chicken Recipe Notes
I started by turning an oven-based recipe into one for the slow cooker.
Then to save a ton of calories/points, I substituted Annie’s Light Goddess Dressing (affiliate link), which has 50% less fat and 50% less calories than their regular Goddess. (If you can’t find Annie’s Light Goddess where you live, you might try another brand or substitute a light creamy Italian or Caesar dressing you like.)
Moist, tender and packed with flavor, everyone loved this easy dinner.
