Prep an easy lunch with just six ingredients.
Nathan Anthony describes this dish as “lazy but loaded with flavour” in his latest cookbook, Bored of Lunch: Six Ingredient Slow Cooker.
“It’s an incredible dish for cutting corners and saves so much prep time, but it still wows on taste. I prefer to seal the chicken before slow-cooking it, for extra flavour, but you can skip this step if you prefer,” says the cook from Northern Ireland.
