Ingredients
6 number bone-in skinless Chicken thighs -(you can use 2-3 large breasts but thighs tend to be more juicy!)
1 tsp Salt
0.5 tsp Pepper
0.5 number Onion -sliced
2 number Carrots -sliced
100 gram Mushrooms-quartered
1 number Red capsicum-sliced
420 gram Tomatoes, diced
3 tbsp Tomato paste
2 number Garlic cloves-minced
2 tsp Dried parsley
Directions
- Rub the chicken with the salt and pepper and place on top on the onion, carrots, mushrooms and capsicum in the bottom of a slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, tomato paste, garlic and parsley and pour over the top of the chicken.
- Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours – a good indication it’s ready is if the carrots have gone tender.
- For a thicker sauce – remove the chicken from the slow cooker and pour the vegetables and sauce into a saucepan. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and leave for 10 minutes to let the sauce thicken.
- Serve the chicken topped with the sauce.
