Slow Cooker Tomato Garlic Chicken & Herbs

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
• 2 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
• 4 garlic (cloves, minced)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 0.5 tsp salt (or to taste)
• 0.25 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
• fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Steps

1. 1

   Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the bottom of the slow cooker insert.

2. 2

   Add the halved cherry tomatoes and minced garlic over the chicken.

3. 3

   Drizzle the olive oil over the ingredients and sprinkle with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper.

4. 4

   Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

5. 5

   Once cooked, you can serve the chicken breasts whole or shred them into the tomato sauce.

6. 6

   Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

Serve this chicken over pasta, zucchini noodles, or with a side of crusty bread to soak up the tomato juices. For a thicker sauce, you can mash some of the cooked tomatoes against the side of the slow cooker at the end of cooking.
