A couple of possible alterations to this recipe: I would now use boneless, skinless chicken thighs, which have become far easier to get. I find them juicier and tastier. But use what you like! Also, I would now use allulose instead of Splenda, rounding up to 1½ teaspoons.

	300 Low Carb Slow Cooker Recipes A Dana Carpender Classic! Ah, the wonders of a slow cooker. After a long, hard day you can walk in the door and the aroma of a hot, home-cooked meal fills the air. You don't have to do that fast tango from fridge to pantry to stove and back again. It's nearly as good as having a personal chef! But for the low-carb dieter, traditional slow cooker recipes can be a problem. Many of them depend on potatoes, noodles, rice, and starchy canned soups. And if you've tried to make up your own slow cooker recipes, you may have found the results less than compelling—too often the food can be mushy, water-logged, and bland. Purchase On Amazon
