My grandfather shared this easy spring dinner trick with me. Just 3 ingredients poured over the top and left untouched. The sweet glaze does the rest.

This Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Maple Glazed Chicken is a simple sweet-and-tangy dish where pure maple syrup gently tenderizes the chicken as it cooks. Combined with Dijon mustard, it forms a balanced glaze with rich sweetness and a subtle tang. As the chicken slowly cooks, its juices blend with the sauce, creating a glossy, caramelized coating that wraps each piece in deep, amber flavor.

Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Maple Glazed Chicken

Ingredients

• 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup pure maple syrup
• ¼ cup Dijon mustard

Step-by-Step Directions

Step 2: Prepare the glaze
