    The ingredients list in this chicken dish seem a little crazy – Lemon, BBQ sauce, ginger? What?!

    But WOW do they work well together! The flavor of this dish is BOLD… I almost guarantee you’ve tasted nothing like this before. You will LOVE it!!

    You will also love it because it’s a slow cooker meal and freezes great if you want to prepare it ahead of time!

    So yeah… kind of a lot of ingredients. But nothing crazy here. You should have the majority in your pantry already. You can sub ground ginger for the ginger and lemon juice from a bottle instead of a fresh lemon.

    Just throw it all in and walk away. Well, I mean, put the lid on and turn it on too.

    Which reminds me… have you ever forgotten to turn your slow cooker on after you placed all of your ingredients in? I have more than once. There’s actually a name for it, it’s called “Pizza Delivery Night.”

    But this dish is way better than pizza. Enjoy!
