Slow Cooker Ginger Lime Chicken With Rapini And Garlic. New Music From Bat Manors.

Today’s Slow Cooker Ginger Lime Chicken is one of those welcome dishes that takes only 5 minutes to assemble. Chop some garlic, grate some ginger then mix with a few other ingredients before pouring over the chicken and letting the slow cooker do its thing.

Before serving, the cooking liquid is boiled down a little to thicken it up and create a light sauce for the chicken. The simple rapini with garlic is a nice accompaniment and easy to whip up while the sauce is reducing.

I am starting the week off with this absolutely gorgeous song from Utah-based band Bat Manors. Lead singer Adam Klopp is only 20…a very impressive talent indeed.
