Chicken is one of the favorite, relatively inexpensive and widely available types of meat, from which you can prepare many different dishes, and everyone can choose a piece of chicken to their liking. This can be dietary white breast meat or fattier and higher-calorie chicken legs. Everyone knows that meat cooked in a slow cooker is especially tender and juicy, it simply falls off the bones and is almost impossible to overcook.

It is very easy and convenient to cook chicken in foil in a slow cooker. The foil seals in all the flavors and the chicken cooks in its own juices. You can use any marinade you wish. If you add a little ground turmeric along with other spices, the dish will turn a pleasant yellow color.

I offer readers of the site a simple recipe for chicken thighs in foil. The meat turns out incredibly tender, juicy and aromatic, and the next day it becomes even tastier. I cooked chicken in foil in a VES Electric SK-A12 multicooker.

Cooking method

1. 
   Prepare the necessary products. Wash the chicken thighs under the tap and let the water drain. Instead of mayonnaise, you can use sour cream, unsweetened yogurt or kefir.
2. 
   Transfer chicken to a suitable sized bowl. Add mayonnaise and chopped garlic.
3. 
   Season with salt, spices, add turmeric. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon, avoiding any lemon seeds in the bowl.
4. 
   Mix everything thoroughly so that each piece is covered with marinade. Cover the top with cling film and place in the refrigerator. Marinating time is up to 2 days, the longer the better, this will make the meat more tender and flavorful. Be sure to periodically stir the contents of the bowl so that the process occurs more or less evenly. You should not leave it longer than 48 hours, otherwise the chicken thighs may begin to deteriorate. If you are short on time, you can easily marinate for 2-3 hours, but then you don’t need to put it in the refrigerator.
5. 
   Place the chicken pieces on foil along with the remaining marinade.
6. 
   Wrap everything tightly, preferably in two layers. You need to make sure that the joints of the foil are only on top, otherwise all the aromatic juice formed during the cooking process will leak out and the dish will no longer turn out so tasty. Place the package in a slow cooker and pour a glass of cold water. Close the lid and set the “Baking” mode for 25 minutes. During cooking, periodically check whether the liquid has boiled away and add it little by little as needed.
7. 
   After the beep, the miracle saucepan will turn off. Do not open the lid and leave the contents of the multicooker for another 30-60 minutes. Due to long-term temperature maintenance, the process will continue, but at a lower level. This will make the chicken very juicy and tender.
8. 
   You can serve chicken baked this way in a slow cooker with any side dish, supplemented with fresh vegetables. Bon appetit!

While baking the chicken in foil, a lot of delicious meat juice will collect, which can be used as a gravy for side dishes. For those who are on a diet, the mayonnaise in this recipe can simply be replaced with low-fat sour cream or natural yogurt. The sauce will still be very tasty.

Simple and delicious recipes for chicken in foil in a slow cooker

My husband tries to stick to proper nutrition and strictly monitors the diet of the whole family, so chicken in foil in a slow cooker is often on our table.

The chicken can be fried, stewed, baked or steamed. Most often in my recipes the main component is the breast, but sometimes I also cook the legs, or I can go wild and bake the whole carcass.

But lately our priority has been chicken in foil in a slow cooker, or rather its breast. This dish turns out very soft and tender, and the aroma generally makes you forget about everything except food.

Ingredients:

Cooking technology

Step 1

We wash the meat and dry it. Place it on the foil and make several punctures with a knife. Now you need to rub the meat with salt and spices.

You can simply put the garlic on top, or you can push it into the pockets you made with a knife.

Step 2

Rub vegetable oil over the entire surface of the breast. Lemon should be placed on and under the meat. Now you need to wrap the foil, you need to do this quite carefully, otherwise it may tear.

Step 3

We place the resulting envelope into the multicooker bowl and set the “miracle oven” to the “Baking” mode. Set the time to about an hour, maybe a little more.

Step 4

After the signal, we take out the hot envelope and open it. Believe me, not only your entire family, but also your neighbors will come running to the kitchen for such a aroma.

This breast goes well with any side dish, but it goes best with fresh vegetables.

Chicken in sour cream and tomato sauce

What you need

• Half a kilo of chicken fillet.
• Two spoons of tomato sauce.
• Fifty grams of sour cream.
• Twenty grams of Provençal herbs.
• Salt.
• A little black pepper.

Cooking technology

Step 1

First of all, prepare the sauce. To do this, you need to mix the tomato with sour cream and spices. These products can be replaced with identical ones. Instead of sour cream, mayonnaise is quite suitable, and instead of Provençal herbs, any others, as long as they are combined with chicken.

Step 2

Rinse the fillets and dry with paper towels. The meat must be marinated in the resulting sauce. To do this, coat the fillet with it and let it sit for half an hour. During this time it will be perfectly saturated with aroma.

Step 3

Wrap the meat in foil and place in the slow cooker. The seam should be at the top.

Set the “Baking” program (temperature should be one hundred and fifty degrees). Now you can go about your business for about forty-five minutes. You can add a little water during cooking. This will not change the taste at all, but you will be sure that nothing will burn, although I don’t do this.

Step 4

When the specified time has passed, remove the package from the “miracle oven”. The dish is ready and the fillet has given juice, I pour it over any side dish. This dish can be served hot, or you can cool it and use the fillet instead of sausage for sandwiches.
