SLOW COOKER ITALIAN CHICKEN
This peasant style chicken dinner fills the house with a wonderful aroma as it cooks. Starting with frozen chicken helps keep it moist during the long cooking. Serve over hot cooked pasta with slabs of buttered fresh bread. We really like garlic. Feel free to reduce the quantities. If your cooker runs 'hot', check after 3 hours to see if it's almost done, then prop lid for remaining hour. If your cooker runs 'slower', check after 4 or 5 hours. You don't want to overcook the chicken as it will become dry. Once you know, you can note the cooking time on the recipe printout for future reference.
