Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken Piccata is creamy lemony sauce-coated noodles with juicy lightly breaded chicken with a hint of garlic, all topped with savory capers!
Hey guys it’s Tiffany from Creme de la Crumb!! Are you enjoying spring? It’s been pretty wet and dreary around here. We got a couple weeks at the beginning of March with gorgeous sunny 70 degree weather and then it evaporated into April showers. I’ll take it over the snow any day though! And rain or shine, a good crockpot dinner is always a good idea.
This slow cooker lemon chicken piccata is one of my family’s favorites! Creamy lemony sauce-coated noodles (linguine or spaghetti – take our pick!) with juicy lightly breaded chicken with a hint of garlic, all topped with savory capers! This dish is so easy to make, and even the noodles are cooked in the crockpot! Your family will fall in love with this delicious dinner!

Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken Piccata
Ingredients
- 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 6 ounces linguine noodles or thin spaghetti noodles
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- salt and pepper to taste
- juice of 1 lemon about 4 tablespoons
- 1/4 cup capers
Instructions
- Whisk together flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture to coat on both sides.
- Drizzle a large skillet with oil, cook chicken over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes on each side to brown (it won't be cooked through.)
- Grease a slow cooker, place chicken in a single layer in the slow cooker, cover and cook on low for 4 hours. Transfer chicken to a plate and cover.
- Add linguine to slow cooker, pour chicken broth over the top, cover and cook on high for 15 minutes. Uncover, stir in lemon juice, heavy cream, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook another 10 minutes on high. Add chicken back to slow cooker until hot throughout.
- Serve hot additional lemon slices and fresh thyme if desired. Enjoy!

Not good – super bland tasting and the noodles definitely weren’t done. Followed the recipe exactly and was really disappointed in the lack of flavor and undercooked noodles. Lemon chicken piccata may just be best cooked without a crock pot. Would not recommend.
I would like to know if you use whipping cream or half and half cream.
I used whipping cream
I am not sure if I like cooking the noodles in the Crock-Pot it definitely was not ready for the time it said I think I should have cooked the noodles first and then put them in as I’m speaking I’m letting them cook another 20 minutes in the sauce on high hopefully fingers crossed it comes out okay
Same!!! Cooking the noodles in the pot was an epic fail
So was the sauce. I won’t be repeating this recipe.
My fam loves this dis!!! I use angel hair pasta!
