This is one of the easiest chicken recipes I’ve ever used. Man, I just love these crock pot recipes!! In less than 5 minutes, I’ve got everything in the slow cooker and there is nothing more I need to do! Plus, this low calorie basil chicken recipe tastes amazing and is a great meal for those following the Weight Watchers program. This is a great meal to cook for the whole family, or to divvy up into individual portions to be eaten at a later time (this is a GREAT way to have low point, ready made meals on hand).

I am confused by the picture…it looks like its in small pieces while the recipe does not state this. There even seems to be something red in the picture, red pepper flakes? again not in the recipe.

Great question! This photo is really just meant to be a basic reference to the recipe, as it is not the exact recipe listed here, it’s just a slightly different version of it. The chicken in the photo has been chopped up very fine. And yes, it does look like red pepper flakes were added. You can add the pepper flakes and chop your chicken the same way if you’d like, as it would not add any additional weight watchers points to the total.
