Mediterranean dishes are super easy and healthy to cook. This one is no different. It offers a savory flavor and can quickly be cooked in a slow cooker (affiliate). I wanted to make this recipe to show that a slow cooker (affiliate) doesn’t need to be used just for soups and stews. It can also be used for Mediterranean Chicken Thighs Slow Cooker (affiliate) Recipe.

Ingredients
If you like Mediterranean cooking, these ingredients are probably in your fridge and pantry (affiliate) right now.
- 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (affiliate)
- 1 lb of boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 4 cloves of roasted garlic
- 1 large onion chopped
- 2 red bell peppers chopped
- 1 lb red potatoes cubed into 1 inch pieces
- ½ cup of chicken broth (affiliate)
- 1 teaspoon of dried oregano (affiliate)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (affiliate)
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (affiliate)
- 1 bay leaf (affiliate)
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
This recipe requires some prep at the beginning. But after that, you need to place the chicken in the slow cooker (affiliate). Since it is a slow cooker (affiliate) recipe with boneless, skinless chicken, it cooks within 4 hours on low.
First, chop the onions and peppers and set aside. Then, cut the potatoes into small 1-inch pieces. The roasted garlic was cooked earlier and stored in the refrigerator, so I minced the cloves into pieces and set all of these items aside.
Then, I added the olive oil (affiliate) to the skillet added the onions and peppers, and sautéed it until they were softened, about 5 minutes on medium-high.
When the peppers and onions were softened, I added them to the Slow cooker (affiliate).
Meanwhile, I added the cubed red potatoes, placed them and the chicken broth (affiliate) into the slow cooker, and started it on low.
Then, add the chicken thigh pieces and the herbs, except for the bay leaf (affiliate), and cook for 5 minutes, turning halfway through. When it was finished, I added the slow cooker.
I cooked the dinner on low for 4 hours. You can cook it on Sunday and reheat it for a quick, healthy dinner on a weeknight. Serve on a bed of cauliflower rice.
