When should we cook this slow cooker chicken recipe?

This is a great slow cooker chicken casserole to enjoy all year round but it’s especially wholesome and warmer throughout the winter months. It would also work well as a pie filling and it’s something we love to cook regularly as it’s so easy to make and full of flavour too.

If you’re looking for a meal that the whole family will enjoy and that works well on a weekday evening but would also be great as more of a special meal, a meal for an occasion, then the Slow Cooker Bacon Mustard and Chicken is a great option.

Crock pot meals are so family friendly and they are key to organising busy family life. This creamy mustard chicken slow cooker recipe can be batch cooked and doubled up easily and it works best using boneless skinless chicken thighs rather than chicken breasts as they stay moist throughout cooking.

You could also throw new potatoes into the mix to make it a really filling one pot meal if you don’t have time to cook potatoes separately. You could also cook pasta to make it a mustard chicken pasta dish.

One thing’s for sure, however you cook it, the Slow Cooker Mustard Chicken Bacon casserole will be a hit with everyone who tries it. The flavours work wonderfully together and it really is a joy to eat and savour. It’s the ultimate comfort food.
