Chicken and a homemade tomato-garlic sauce cook together in this simple yet flavor healthy (whole30, paleo) slow cooker recipe.
Cookbook recipe!! In less than one week my cookbook will officially be released! Save-the-date folks – Tuesday, September 19th! I’m happy to share this Slow Cooker Tomato-Garlic Chicken & Herbs recipe with you because it’s one of my favorite recipes from The Easy & Healthy Slow Cooker Cookbook. My cookbook features 125 healthy recipes; everything from whole30, paleo, low-carb, gluten-free, etc. There’s even an entire section dedicated to pasta/rice and to beans/lentils. Not often you see those types of recipes here! The kindle version is currently on sale for $1.99. I will be sharing some of the recipes here to the blog so stay tuned.
While this is a very simple recipe (you literally just throw everything in, stir, and let it cook) it’s full of flavor. Of course you gotta like tomatoes and garlic. If you don’t have fresh herbs then use dried. The recipe calls for chicken thighs but like most of my recipes you can use your preferred cut of chicken. Thighs or dark meat in general work best in my opinion.
- 3 lbs chicken thighs, boneless, skinless
- ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp garlic salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 1 tbsp fresh basil
- 1 tbsp fresh oregano
- Combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker and mix well.
- Cover and cook high 3-4 or low for 5-7 hours
Shred the meat or keep it whole.
Throw in a pound of diced potatoes or sweet potatoes to make this a more complete meal. Green beans would be a good addition as well.
You can serve many different ways. I like to serve this over mashed cauliflower.

This looks delicious! I was just thinking we should cook more crockpot meals.
Looks super delicious! I love how colorful and nutritious it looks! Thanks for sharing.
One pot meals like these are excellent to make after hard day at work.The recipe is great and you could easily swap some ingredients that you have at hand.
Fall is slow cooker season in my house so this is a perfect time for your book to come out! Congrats. I will have to try this recipe! Yum!
Oh yum, that looks so good. My son in law is on his way to visit and he mostly eats Paleo. This would be a nice treat to make for him after 14 hours of driving.
I am drooling! I’m trying to be a lot more conscious about my food choices since putting on the pounds from stress and work, but this looks so good and I don’t think I’ll miss the carbs!
My family would love this and one pot meals are the best!
Wow! This looks amazing! And I love that it is a slow cooker recipe. 🙂
yummy! this looks exactly like something I would make
It looks really good – one question – can it be done vegan?
This looks delicious! And it’s perfect for my low carb diet too! Congratulations on you impending cookbook release!
Simple joys……looks tasty!
