Ingredients
- 6-8 chicken thighs
- 1 onion, roughly chopped
- 1/2 red or green pepper
- 2 cups mushrooms
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 2 cups chopped zucchini
- 6 ounces tomato paste
- 28 ounces stewed tomatoes ( I use diced, you can use whole)
- 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons red wine (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chicken stock granules
Instructions
- Combine everything but the chicken pieces in the slow cooker.
- Give it a taste. Want more red wine? Add more now. More stock for a salty taste? Go right ahead. Sample it now before you contaminate it with chicken.
- Place the chicken thighs on top, then press them into the middle of the sauce, making sure they are covered, but it's better that they don't touch the bottom and cook right in the middle. Then cover and cook!
- This took 4 hours in the slow cooker on high and will take all day (7-8 hours) in the slow cooker on low. This is the perfect meal to start in the morning when you head to work.
- Serve over rice or pasta.
Notes
- Nutritional values will vary depending on ingredients used.
- If you leave out the sugar this recipe rings in at 13 grams of NET carbs per serving, making it a healthy low carb choice.
