  • ½ teaspoon Oregano
  • ⅛ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

Instructions

  • Mix remaining seasonings in a dish and then sprinkle over chicken.

Notes

Chicken breast can get dry if overcooked, however dark meat, such as thighs work well when cooked longer in the slow cooker and can be substituted in this recipe.
