Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained and quartered)
- 1.5 cups grape or cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning on both sides.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. This step is optional but adds extra flavor to the dish.
Step 3
Place the seared chicken breasts in the crock pot.
Step 4
Scatter the artichoke hearts and cherry tomatoes over the chicken in the crock pot.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using). Pour this mixture over the chicken, artichokes, and tomatoes in the crock pot.
Step 6
Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
Step 7
Once the chicken is done, taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve the chicken breasts with the artichokes and tomatoes, and spoon the flavorful broth over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Step 9
Pair with rice, pasta, or a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce!
