Method
 

Cooking Process
  1. Place the red onion wedges and half the minced garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker to create a flavor base.
  2. Lay the chicken breasts over the onions. Season heavily with dried oregano, salt, and pepper until the chicken is well-coated.
  3. Pour the chicken stock and olive oil into the pot (avoid pouring directly over the seasoned chicken). Top the chicken with lemon rounds.
  4. Cover and cook on LOW for 3.5 to 4 hours until the chicken is juicy and tender.
  5. Scatter fresh parsley and crumbled feta over the top before serving directly from the ceramic pot.

Notes

Always use the LOW setting for chicken breasts to ensure they remain juicy.
Add the feta at the very end to prevent it from dissolving completely into the broth.
