This dish bursts with tangy, Mediterranean flavor. No one would ever guess that it only took you 5 minutes to prepare!
This chicken with sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes has all the components you want in a delicious meal – super easy to make in your slow cooker, amazing blend of Mediterranean-inspired flavors, and makes even better leftovers. We enjoy eating it over rice or salad, and it’s especially delicious when paired with my Gluten-Free Quinoa Tabbouleh Salad.
When choosing the sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes at the grocery store, be sure to read the labels carefully. Both of these ingredients come in jars and often have sneaky unhealthy oils or additives in them. I’ve linked my favorite sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes in the ingredients list below.
