Paleo Slow Cooker Chicken with Mushrooms, Artichokes and Olives

Gluten-Free Dairy-Free

Slow Cooker Chicken with Artichokes, Mushrooms and Olives_-2


You all know that I am all about easy, tasty and healthy meals. This Paleo Slow Cooker Chicken with Mushrooms, Artichokes and Olives fits the bill perfectly!


This meal took mere minutes to throw together and it was delicious and satisfying.

When chicken is cooked in the slow cooker properly, it turns out fall off the bone tender. The key with chicken in the slow cooker is to not overcook it. In my Hamilton Beach Slow Cooker, 5 hours seems to be perfect for this type of chicken dish. If I am going to roast or poach an entire chicken, then I do 6 to 8 hours, depending on the recipe.

Paleo Slow Cooker Chicken with Mushrooms, Artichokes and Olives


One of the tricks to making a good slow cooker chicken with the skin-on, is to broil the chicken once it is cooked. This step will only take you minutes, especially if you have a handy toaster oven, like this, that heats up quickly. It will make all the difference in your recipe!


Ingredients

4 chicken legs (alternatively, you can use a whole chicken and cut it into 8 pieces)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning (I use this one)
salt and pepper
1 – 8 to 10 ounce jar of pitted kalamata olives, drained (like this)
1 – 8 to 10 ounce jar of artichoke hearts, drained (like this)
1 – 6 to 8 ounce pack of sliced mushrooms (you can use whole mushrooms and slice them yourself, this just saves time)
1/2 cup of white wine (you can substitute chicken broth or tomato sauce for Whole30)
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

  1. Pat your chicken legs dry. Season them with the Italian seasoning. Generously season them with salt and pepper.
  2. Place your chicken legs in the bottom of your slow cooker. Then add the kalamata olives, artichoke hearts and sliced mushrooms.
  3. Pour the white wine in and set your slow cooker on low for 5 hours.
  4. After 5 hours, remove the chicken and vegetables from the slow cooker and place them in an oven-safe dish. Turn your broiler on high and broil for 10 minutes, until the chicken skin is nice and crispy.
  5. Garnish with parsley and serve!

    This looks delicious! I never thought to make bone-in chicken in the slow cooker, but with the broiling step at the end, I bet the results are fabulous.

    Ooh! You just gave me an idea for what to do with some cuts of pork I’ve had in the fridge since Friday. Thanks.
