There’s something incredibly comforting about coming home to the aroma of a delicious meal that’s been simmering away all day. This Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Lemon Herb Chicken is one of those recipes that feels like a warm hug after a long day.

A glass of chilled white wine or a refreshing iced tea would complement the meal perfectly.
