Notes

Ingredient Substitutions: Use cauliflower florets for a lower-carb version instead of potatoes, or replace the chicken breasts with thighs for a juicier outcome. Ensure to check the doneness about 30 minutes before the cooking time ends. Avoid overcrowding the crockpot; if cooking for a larger family, consider making two batches instead of one.
