I am super excited to introduce you to this amazing crockpot chicken recipe that I just came up with this week! It is super yummy and unique with a creamy dill sauce.
Dill is an underused herb that I have been dying to incorporate into my everyday easy crockpot recipes. When I think of Dill, I think of pairing it with potatoes with sour cream and egg salads. I decided to live on the edge of the crockpot and throw dill into my chicken recipe. It turned out amazing and gave a new flavor to my weekly family dinner.

This looks so good! I love finding new crock pot recipes to try. Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday this week!
I love dill so this is just the perfect dish for me.
This is one of my favorite dishes.
Could you cook in the sauce at the beginning? Thinking of using coconut milk instead of cream.sounds very good.
