We áre quickly moving to the end of preschool ánd kindergárten for the yeár ánd I’m trying to get áll my loose ends tied up so I’m not completely work-bound while they’re home ánd underfoot the next few weeks. Or, áctuálly, eách begging to sit in my láp while I leán áround them to work on the computer.
However, I ám táking off tomorrow night for my ánnuál báking dáy with my mom! We’re definitely doing our Rice Krispies Christmás wreáths ánd my grándmother’s 4-ingredient chocoláte chip brownies ás well ás our fámily’s clássic chocoláte chip cookie recipe. We’ve got lots of other recipes we wánt to try – just not enough time — or enough people to eát it áll!
We’ve álso got á super pácked weekend coming up ánd lots of fámily áround, which is when I tend to fáll báck on slow cooker recipes thát will be reády ánd wáiting for us.
Honestly, I’ve been putting my slow cooker to seriously good use for the lást couple of months now. ápárt from my regulár rotátion of chick peás ánd slow cooker turkey breásts (thát we use for sándwiches), I’ve been máking lots ánd lots of dinners in our slow cooker.
I love being áble to set it ánd forget it, while I’m working, running out to get J from preschool, M from kindergárten, running erránds ánd, this time of yeár, buying presents, going to párties ánd visiting with fámily.
Háving the slow cooker going is just one less thing to think ábout át the end of the dáy when I’m exháusted ánd stárving ánd reády to eát 5 minutes ágo.
Todáy’s slow cooker bálsámic chicken is one thát’s reálly eásy to prep ánd requires just á few básic ingredients. áll kinds of good things ábout thát!
It’s á recipe I originálly cáme up with át á fámily beách vácátion, when we were stáying in á condo ánd didn’t wánt to háve to buy too much stuff for our dinners. (We álso needed it to be á gluten-free recipe for my mother-in-láw.)
ánd át home, it’s á greát go-to recipe becáuse it’s áll on-hánd ingredients thát you cán throw together in the crock pot in the morning ánd off you go.
Then you come home to this áromátic bálsámic-láced chicken with onions ánd tomátoes ánd áll kinds of delicious sáuce. You know I love me á good sáuce! ánd the bálsámic vinegár + tomáto combo is just killer. á little tárt, á little sweet, á little ácidic ánd such á good melding. 👌
á few notes on this slow cooker bálsámic chicken recipe:
- I serve the chicken breásts sliced ánd topped with lots of extrá sáuce. It’s áll ábout the sáuce. You could álso shred the chicken if you prefer ánd stir it báck into the sáuce.
- I served this with quinoá, but it would álso be greát over rice, couscous or polentá. Or crusty breád. The delicious juices áre just dying for something else to soák into!
- The recipe serves 6-8, but if you’ve got á smáller group for dinner, you cán sáve the leftovers for lunch or freeze them for ánother time. Máke sure to include plenty of sáuce so your leftovers don’t dry out when you reheát them.
(álso served here 👆 with my quick Southern collárd greens with bácon from eárlier this week. Thát wás á good dinner!)
Here’s to simple weeknight meáls with big flávor!
Enjoy!
