Slow Cooker Chicken Piccata with Trader Joe's Cauliflower Rice & Sautéed Spinach

Have you ever made Slow Cooker Chicken Piccata? I hadn't until I was running short on time and was going to be out of the house for the whole day. I quickly scrambled it together and ended up pairing it with Trader Joe's Cauliflower Rice & Sautéed Spinach for a pretty delicious meal on the fly. What I Used:

• 6 Boneless Skinless chicken thighs
• 1 cup chicken broth (1 cup water + 1 spoonful of better than bullion chicken flavor)
• 1/4-1/2 cup dish of white wine (I don't usually measure I just pour in a big splash)
• 1/2 lemon squeezed into the dish and then tossed in
• 1-2 big spoonful of capers
• 1/2 bag of Trader Joe's Riced Cauliflower
• 1 bag Trader Joe's Frozen Brown Rice
• 1 package of spinach

How to:

1. If you have the option to brown the chicken first, either in your slow cooker like this, or on the stove do that in a bit of oil and pepper (no salt needed as the capers are super salty). If not just place them in your slow cooker.
2. Add all of the other ingredients (chicken stock, white wine, lemon, and capers) and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
3. I ended up mixing the cauliflower rice with brown rice as I needed some extra carbs that night but you could easily just do the cauliflower. Either heat in the microwave, or bake on a baking sheet at 350 for about 10-15 minutes until a little soft.
4. Simply sauté the spinach on medium/high heat with a bit of oil until lightly wilted then remove from heat.
5. Serve it up with heaping spoonfuls of your yummy sauce and call it a day!
