Title: Slightly Italian Chicken
Categories: Crockpot, Main dish, Low fat, Poultry
Yield: 4 Servings

Cooking spray
4 lg Boned and skinned chicken
-breast halves
1 cn Mushroom pieces, drained
1 cn Artichoke hearts, drain
1 bn Green onions, chopped

-----------------------------------SAUCE-----------------------------------
1 tb Tapioca, quick cooking kind
2 tb Fresh lemon juice, *
1 ts Oregano
1 ts Garlic powder
1 Env low-sodium chicken broth
1/3 c Low calorie Italian salad
-dressing
1/2 c White wine
1 ts Worcestershire sauce, **

Spray crock inside with Vegetable Spray. Place drained mushrooms, drained
artichoke hearts and chopped green onions in bottom of crockpot. Sprinkle
vegetables with a heaping Tablespoon of quick-cooking tapioca and 1
envelope of chicken bouillon (I use MBT brand of low-sodium chicken
bouillon, but any will do). If you're using granulated bouillon, use about
a heaping teaspoon. Place well-washed and dried boneless chicken breasts
(all skin and fat removed). Combine remaining sauce ingredients and pour on
top of chicken and vegetables. Cover and set crockpot on High. Cook 5-6
hours or until tender. The tapioca thickens the sauce while it cooks (you
can't even guess the tapioca is in there later). I used Minute Maid fresh
frozen lemon juice because I don't like the taste of Real-Lemon and I
didn't have a fresh lemon on hand. ** I use Angostura brand low-sodium
worcestershire
