- 2 cans low-sodium chicken broth or one can +1 cup water
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons sea salt

Put chicken in the crock pot that is sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
In the same pan you browned the chicken in, brown the onion and garlic, add lemon juice and chicken broth. Scrape all the tasty bits from the bottom of the pan and stir. Pour on top of the chicken in the crock pot.
