Simple and delicious Slow Cooker Citrus Chicken is the perfect brunch addition or a weeknight meal for your family! Pair with rolls, fruit, pasta or a side salad and you have a yummy meal that everyone will love!
I cannot remember a day in the last few years where I don’t feel rushed, scrambling to finish up working, help my kids with homework or take them to a sports practice.
Life is so busy and taking an hour to prepare a healthy meal doesn’t always feel like the best use of my time. I’d rather have that hour to connect with kids and find out what’s happening in their lives. That’s why I love love love slow cooker recipes! I can throw something in the slow cooker the evening before or in the morning, and have a delicious meal ready.
This recipe is exactly that! A four-ingredient slow cooker recipe that’s full of flavor and gets a delicious meal on the table for my kids without the struggle of being in the kitchen for too long.
The main staple in this recipe that gives it the citrus flavor is Florida’s Natural® Brand Orange Juice. I choose Florida’s Natural because it’s made from 100 percent Florida oranges, hand-picked from Florida groves. No water, sugar or preservatives are added. Florida’s Natural orange juice only uses oranges hand-picked from grower-owned orange groves in Florida. They never use imported oranges. It’s the perfect ingredient to add the citrus flavor we love in this chicken.
How to Make Slow Cooker Citrus Chicken

You can also make this recipe in the oven by placing the chicken in a glass baking dish and pouring the sauce over it. Bake at 350ºF for 35 minutes.
