- Nonstick spray for slow cooker (Affiliate Link) bottom
- 1.5 pound and a half of chicken thighs boneless skinless
- 2 cups of tomato sauce (Affiliate Link)
- One cup of water
- Half a teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 tsp of coarse pepper

- Teaspoon of granulated garlic
- 3.8 ounce sliced right olives black
- 3 peppers sliced
- 1 onion sliced
- 2 carrots sliced
- 1 tablespoon of dried parsley
- Half a tablespoon of dried basil
Instructions
- Prep and cut all the vegetables. Cut the 3 peppers into slices. The thinner you cut the slices, the quicker it will soften. Slice the onions. Then, cut two carrots into strips.
- Spray the slow cooker (Affiliate Link) with nonstick spray to help it the chicken cacciatore not to stick during the cooking process.
- Then, add the tomato sauce (Affiliate Link) first. Add parsley, basil, salt, pepper, and granulated garlic. If you want it a little spicy, add 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes.
- Add veggies, carrots, onions, peppers, and olives to the top of the tomato sauce (Affiliate Link). Stir the food into the sauce. Add 1 cup of water if it looks too dry.
- Lay the chicken thighs on top of the tomato sauce (Affiliate Link) mix and press down into the sauce. Make sure the chicken thighs are covered with a little bit of tomato sauce (Affiliate Link). Add the lid and cook in slow cooker (Affiliate Link) for 6 hours on low. Keep an eye on it to make sure it does not burn. Stirring every hour or so works just fine.
- Twenty minutes before it finishes, cook the gluten free (or regular) pasta or rice. Set aside.
- After the slow cooker (Affiliate Link) is finished, take it out and serve it on a bed of gluten free pasta or rice if you want.
