Ingredients
- 8 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 green bell pepper cored, seeded and diced
- 1 red bell pepper cored, seeded and diced
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 14 ounces tomato sauce
- 14 ounces canned diced tomatoes with juice
- ½ cup chicken stock
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup kalamata olives drained and pitted, or 1 ½ tablespoons capers
Instructions
- Season chicken with salt & pepper and cook over medium heat until skin is browned, about 3-4 minutes.
- Top the chicken with diced bell peppers, onion, mushrooms, and garlic.
- Combine remaining ingredients (except olives) and pour over the vegetables.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours or until chicken is cooked through.
- After 4 hours carefully remove the chicken, add olives (or capers) and stir to combine the sauce.
- Serve the chicken over pasta with the sauce from the slow cooker.
Notes
- Optional: After removing the chicken from the slow cooker, place under the broiler to crisp the skin before serving.
- To thicken sauce, combine 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water. Add to sauce a little bit at a time and stir to combine. You may or may not need the cornstarch depending on how much liquid your veggies and chicken release.
