How to Make Creamy Artichoke Chicken in a Slow Cooker
Cris here. Ever since we have been making these Crock Pot Creamy Lemon Artichokes, I have been wanting to alter this recipe to add some chicken and bacon to make a really delicious main dish. As you might recall, we altered a main dish recipe from one of our favorite cookbooks to make this popular side dish. So when we LOVED the sauce so much I knew it would be great to try as a main dish with a few tweaks of our own. So this recipe is an alteration of an alteration, like so many of our favorite dishes. We love using great cookbooks as a spring board to create many recipes.
Notes on Crock Pot Creamy Artichoke Chicken (Low Carb)
- We have made this dish in the casserole crock and traditional 6 quart slow cookers.
- We like to use this tool to zest lemons. You will be amazed how much flavor lemon zest can add to your dishes AND it is way easier to do than you think.
- Another great tool to have on hand is this hand held lemon juicer. We use it ALL the time.
- If you are looking for more low carb crock pot recipes, check out our Low Carb Recipes Library.
- This recipe was adapted from a recipe found in Keto Gatherings, a new cookbook that is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
- Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

Do you use thighs or breasts in the recipe, this should be specified. Normally thighs are the better choice for slow longer cooking.
