The key to making the best balsamic chicken is to use a good quality balsamic vinegar. Look for a vinegar that is aged for at least 18 months, as this will give it a richer flavor. You will also want to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, as these will cook quickly and evenly in the crock pot.

SLOW COOKER BALSAMIC CHICKEN
So easy and so good. I use frozen chicken breasts and cook on high for 4 hours in the slow cooker. The sauce is not thick, it is a bit runny, but very tasty. Add tomato paste if you want it thicker. Serve on top of pasta and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. I use one can of crushed tomatoes and one can of diced tomatoes.

Tips:

- If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this recipe in a slow cooker. Just cook the chicken on low for 4-6 hours, or until it is cooked through.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables. You can also use the sauce to make a delicious and flavorful gravy.
