Made in the slow cooker, this chicken marengo infuses the savory tomato sauce with mushrooms and onion for a delicious dinner.
Chicken Marengo is such a simple (but feels fancy) dinner to enjoy for the whole family – and made in the slow cooker so it’s very hands off! This one-pot meal combines tomatoes, mushrooms, and onions to give the sauce a great flavor. White wine adds depth and a touch of acidity to this recipe, but chicken broth will also do the trick. Traditionally, chicken marengo is served over pasta or rice, however I usually cook up a batch of zucchini noodles for a Paleo and Whole-30 compliant meal. We also enjoy this hearty dish with olives on the side!
