How to store these Healthy Slow Cooker Chicken Recipes
Slow cooker Chicken Recipes store really well!
Refrigerating: Most Healthy Slow Cooker Chicken Recipes will last in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Anything past 4 days the chicken may start to spoil so it’s best not to eat.
Freezing: Many healthy crockpot chicken recipes freeze very well! You can keep almost anything in the freezer for up to 3 months if stored properly. We like these containers for freezing.
Reheating: Different chicken recipes should be reheated differently. Soups and stews are fine to microwave, but anything grilled or pan seared might get tough or bouncy when microwaved. It’s best to reheat them in a pan on top of the stove or in the toaster oven.
Healthy Chicken Crock Pot Recipes FAQs
Yes, you can put raw chicken in a slow cooker. Chicken typically cooks in 4-6 hours on high in the slow cooker or 6-8 hours on low. Chicken should be cooked to 165 degrees internal temperature.
Don’t put frozen chicken in the crockpot. This can result in a food safety issue! If your chicken is not completely thawed it may not cook all the way in the slow cooker.
On average, most slow cooker chicken recipes are done at 4-6 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low. Sometimes less. Every crockpot runs differently so some may cook quicker than others.
The best way to check if chicken is cooked is to use an internal thermometer. Chicken breast is done when it is browned on the outside and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. The best way to test if chicken is cooked is to use an internal meat thermometer. This is a great thing to have in your kitchen and less than $10.
We love this instant-read thermometer for checking the internal temperature to make sure your meat is cooked thoroughly!
