How To Make french basil chicken - slow cooker

  • 1
    Heat oil over medium heat, add onion and cook until soft.
  • 2
    Add garlic, Herbs de Provence, salt and pepper, cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add flour, stir for 1 minute, add the wine, cook for 1 minute. Add the stock and tomatoes, and bring to a boil.
  • 3
    Stir in artichoke hearts, remove from heat.
  • 4
    Place chicken thighs in the crock pot, and cover with sauce. Sprinkle with basil.
  • 5
    Cook on low for 6 1/2 hours. Chicken will be pretty much falling off the bone at this point. So I remove the chicken from the crock pot, remove the bones from the thighs, and cut / shred the chicken meat, and return to the crock pot. Give a stir to mix in. Delicious served over rice. Enjoy!
