Crock Pot Balsamic Chicken

So I had to work on Saturday night, so supper was up to the hubby.  So I thought I would be nice and make a crock pot dinner and I had one that I had gotten off my mom forum and gave it a try.
Well hubby loved that he didn't have to cook supper and I liked that it stuck to my challenge.
Well this turned out AMAZING......I loved it (and I ate it cold when I got home from work) but the hubby said that the sauce was abit over powering but what does he know about good food.....lol.  So the nice thing about this meal is you can cook it in 3 hours (on high) and the chicken was falling apart.......Love it!!!

So this is what everything looked like in the crock pot once it was mixed, but not cooking yet.  I also added mushrooms into the mix.



Crock Pot Balsamic Chicken
4-6 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
2 14.5 oz can diced or crushed tomatoes (I think 1 would work as well)
1 onion thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tblsp olive oil (i just went around the crock pot twice)
1 tsp each: dried oregano, basil, and rosemary
1/2 tsp thyme
ground black pepper and salt to taste
Another add in idea - mushrooms
Directions
Pour the olive oil on bottom of a 3 - 5 quart crock pot
Place the chicken breasts in crock pot, salt and pepper each breast
Put sliced onion on top of chicken
Then put in all the dried herbs and garlic cloves
Pour in vinegar and top with tomatoes
Cook on high 3 hours or low for 4 - 6 hours.
Serve over angel hair pasta and garnish with fresh parsley or basil.

Prep was very quick and easy, and Very taste in the end

Check back tomorrow for a new recipe
