  • 2 tsp. oregano
  • 2 tsp. parsley
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder 
  • 2 tsp. sea salt

  • 4-6 garlic cloves, chopped or 2 tbs of minced garlic
  • 1-6 oz. can of tomato paste combined with 6 oz. water
  • 1 c. chicken stock
  • 1/2 c. balsamic vinegar
Place chicken breasts evenly along the bottom of a crock pot and drizzle with olive oil. Whisk together oregano, parsley, garlic powder, and sea salt in a bowl and then sprinkle half of the mixture over chicken. Add the garlic and onions, then spread the tomato paste on top of the chicken. Pour the broth then the balsamic over the chicken and top with the remaining seasoning mixture.

This recipe goes great with red wine!
