Notes
- Sear the chicken in a hot skillet before adding it to the slow cooker if you want deeper flavor and a golden crust.
- Use fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary for an extra pop of freshness if you have them on hand.
- For crispy green beans, toss them in during the last hour of cooking instead of adding them at the start.
