MOROCCAN Chicken and Lentils

1 8 oz package baby carrots
1 1/2 cups lentils, uncooked
1 1/2 pounds FROZEN chicken breast tenders
2 tablespoons minced garlic
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons salt-free Moroccan rub (or 3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric, l/2 teaspoon ground red pepper, and l/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon)
2 (14 l/4 ounce) cans fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth

Note: I followed the 1 hour on high and then found it was done after 3 hours on low. I have a new crockpot so maybe it heats hotter. I hope you like it!


So trying this
used five chicken legs instead
4 tsp curry powder
1/2 tsp sugar
2Tlbsp paparika
1 Tbsp Cinnamin
1tsp ginger and nutmeg
Set to 4hrs. in crock pot
Smells good, but uncertain any useful advise?
Just could not find a premade rub so I bought curry powder because could not remember individual spices suggested

Made something similar last week. only I added onions , cabbage and green peppers. Wonderful! Seasonings were the same. Chicken thighs gives it so much more flavor!

Its really good and so simple, I read a spic rub at Fine cooking.com and improvised can be any easier unless its take out and I left it for five hours on high
