By CarolineNGa

Easy, healthy and delicious slow cooker artichoke chicken the whole family loved.

Ingredients

• 1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts (I used thighs) (Each piece of chicken should be about 4 ounces each.)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes with juice
• 1 can (14 ounces) quartered artichoke hearts, drained
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
• 1 cup nonfat chicken broth
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
• 1 tablespoon quick-cooking tapioca
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Preparation

Step 1

Coat the ceramic insert of your slow cooker with cooking spray. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and place the chicken in the slow cooker.
In a medium size bowl, mix together the tomatoes, artichoke hearts, onion, olives, broth, wine, tapioca, parsley, basil and thyme. Pour mixture over the chicken.
Cover and cook on LOW, 4 to 6 hours or until fork tender. (Mine were fork tender at 4 hours so I switched the ninja to warm for several hours till dinner.)
