White serving dish with cooked chicken breasts in a sauce made from cranberry sauce with whole cranberries, French dressing, and onion soup mix with a grey striped tea towel wrapped around the dish.

Slow Cooker Cranberry Chicken

Cook cranberry chicken in your crockpot when you want delicious chicken that doesn't seem like it was cooked in a crockpot.

The three (only three!) sauce ingredients meld to enhance flavor and provide a noteworthy texture, too—tender but with chicken breasts still holding their own, enveloped in the tangy, sweet cranberry-infused sauce.
