It's magic how the delicious lemon sauce appears...poof...out of nowhere! Think this would be good without the paprika - will try with just the lemon and rosemary in the future. Nice easy recipe!

Made this for dinner tonight using boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I went out to cut some rosemary, but unfortunately the entire bush was dead, so I had to use dry rosemary instead. The only thing I will do differently next time is to cut back on the paprika. We all felt that it overpowered the lemon and rosemary in this dish. Thanks for posting this recipe. Made and reviewed for the 71st AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.

I used boneless, skinless chicken breast. It is quite amazing how much sauce/juice was generated in the crockpot; the lemony flavour was great and we used the sauce to spoon over a side serving of rice.I would recommend to reduce the cooking time to 2-2.5 hours if using boneless chicken.
