Margarita Chicken in the crock-pot

I made this the other day for the family and Carson really liked it. I got the recipe from another blog that I read. It was really good and super easy to make.

6-8 chicken breast
3-4 minced garlic cloves
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
2 T soy sauce (I used the lower sodium one)
juice from one lime
zest from one lime
onion chopped
broccoli

* you can add whatever veggies you like

Mix soy sauce, mustard, honey, garlic, lime and lime zest in a bowl. Place the chicken (can be frozen) and onion in the crock-pot. Poor sauce over chicken and onion. Add broccoli to the crock-pot when there is about an hour left to cook (if you put it in in the beginning it gets to mushy). Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Serve with brown rice.

Next time I make this I am only going to use 4 chicken breast because it made a lot more than the 3 of us could eat. I hope you enjoy this.
