You’re accustomed to pairing chicken with a side of broccoli, but the fresh lemon juice added to this easy, slow cooker soup really ties the two flavors together. Coconut milk thickens the soup and, along with the seasonings, creates a tasty broth. Make ahead of time to use for quick, weekday lunches or enjoy as a comforting, hands-off dinner for the whole family.
