- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil

Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.

In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Pour the mixture into the crock pot, distributing it evenly over the ingredients.
Step 5
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
Step 6
Once cooked, taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.
