Let’s just put it out there. Travel is awesome but also throws you you so off. Am I right? I’m currently getting back from a press/nutrition trip from California and all I want are GREENS GREENS GREENS and some good protein. Hence this Garlicky Green Crock-Pot Chicken and (green) lentil recipe. Haha, yes, GREENS all around!

Bu at the same time, simplicity. I want a good bowl of nourishment and recipe that will last us all week until I really go the store for restocking. And I may need some extra fiber.. I’m sure you can relate. Resetting the system. You know… feels good.

Well you’re in luck! And so am I. Because I just so happened to make this crock-pot chicken and lentils recipe last week, froze it, and now we have some for this week. I’m smart, or so I think.

In all seriousness, the moment I made this “springy” green crock pot chicken recipe, I just knew I had to share. It’s a lifesaver! For convenience, for health, for all the flavors! I looooooove that combo. Don’t you?

Oh and it’s gluten free, dairy free, and nut free. High fives ya’ll!

The key to making this dish extra flavor is the garlicky green sauce marinade. It’s pretty easy to do and is packed with so much freshness!

You got basil, mint, orange juice, garlic (lots of it), sweet onion, chili pepper, sea salt, and pepper!

No really, all that combine with chicken over green lentils creates a masterpiece. It’s so fresh and flavorful tasting even when you’ve cooked in the crock-pot all day.

This garlicky green marinade also acts a part of the “broth” for the french green lentils. When you slow cook lentils in a broth or marinade of some sort, you REALLY get more bang for your buck. You see, lentils (legumes) contain a great source of minerals such as magnesium, calcium and iron, but sometimes the phytic acid can block that absorption. By soaking and slow cooking, you’re getting better nutrient absorption and digestive support because soaking and slow cooking helps break down the phytic acid. Slow cooking also creates amazing flavor and of course convenience.

Plus lentils (slow cooked or not) make a great staple for a one pot wonder and/or gluten free bowl kind of meal. See, more bang for your buck!

Description

Crock-Pot Chicken with Green Garlic Sauce and Lentils {Gluten Free}


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs skinless chicken breasts (around four 5oz. chicken breasts)
  • 1 cup green lentils
  • 1 ½ cups vegetable or chicken broth (gluten free)
  • 1 tbsp butter or ghee (melted)

For the GREEN SAUCE marinade:

  • ¼ cup chopped sweet onion
  • ½ cup packed basil leaves
  • 3 mint leaves
  • 3 – 4 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves (peeled)
  • 2 oz (¼ cup) fresh orange juice
  • ½ tsp chili pepper seasoning
  • ½ tsp smoked (or regular) paprika
  • ½ tsp each sea salt and black pepper (and any extra desired for when you serve individually plates)

For the optional Green Avocado Yogurt on top:

  • ½ avocado mixed with ⅓ cup plain yogurt or sour cream. (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse your chicken and your lentils. Dry and set aside.
  2. Next maybe sure all your veggies for the green sauce are cleaned and chopped. Combine in a blender until green marinade is formed.
  3. Place broth and and lentils in the crock pot at the bottom. Mix together. Mix in your butter/ghee
  4. Place chicken on top and then pour the green sauce over the chicken.
  5. It will look soupy but it keeps the chicken more moist. See notes for other marinating options.
  6. Cook on low for 4 -6 hrs (until lentils/chicken is down) or high for 3 hrs.
  7. There will be a nice sauce from the broth and green marinade combined.
  8. Serve the lentil and chicken in a bowl and place some of the broth on top.
  9. Garnish with extra sea salt/pepper and basil if desired
  10. If you want to make the avocado cream, just combine ½ avocado with the yogurt until a dip is formed. Place a spoonful on top of chicken and lentil bowls.

Notes

  • If you want the chicken to have extra spice and flavor. Add in a ½ teaspoon or more of cayenne and let the marinade sit over the chicken in a bowl for 20 minutes in fridge, then add to crock pot for the 3 hrs with the broth and lentils. Totally optional
  • Estimated nutrition below without avocado sauce. Add an additional 40-50 calories per serving with the sauce.

      Hi Sandra! You can modify cooking to make it in a dutch oven on the stove. I would try medium low or medium for 60-90 medium first and see how the lentils and chicken cook up after 45. Adjust after that. Does that make sense? Keep me posted.

      I would try adding oil to the instant pot then adding in your chicken and browning it for a few minutes on sauté first. Then add in your lentils and your marinade and mix it all together. Add the broth or water after that and mix again. Close the lid and pressure cook for 20 to 25 minutes with slow release. I might even say 22 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken. I haven’t tried in the instant pot so I can’t guarantee you this, but let me know if you give it a whirl. Hope that helps. Does that make sense?

      Hey Blair! I used crushed pepper to blend with green sauce but I’ve used cayenne/chili powder blend before too. Both work. The cayenne is smokier in taste though. Hope that helps.

      Hey friend! I only used a cup of dry lentils which serves about four. So the the calories including 1/2 cup of lentils are included. They have tons of fiber and protein so this is a filling recipe for sure! Great for post workout or for multiple meals. Does that make sense?

    You had me from “garlicky” BUT SERIOUSLY. Also, I’m loving the crock pot lately and trying to use it more and more, despite the weather being slightly warmer. It definitely makes my life easier.

    You know I love my Crock Pot, and this is such a unique and healthy dish that’s full of BIG flavor. YUM!

    You are so smart for freezing this! I always consider myself a bad traveler because I’m thrown way off no matter what, but I guess everyone is to some extent. The marinade in this sounds incredible!
