Instructions

  • Prepare, chop or crush the garlic, chop the herbs and slice the olives and figs
  • In a shallow dish combine the marinade ingredients: 1 Head Garlic, 2 Tablespoons Oregano, 1/4 Cup Red wine vinegar, 1/4 Cup Olive Oil, 10 Figs, 10 Green olives, 1/4 Cup Capers, 2 Bay leaves and half of the parsley.
  • Add 1 Pound Chicken breasts to the bowl and toss to coat. Cover and marinate for at least 3 hours to overnight.
  • Add the chicken, marinade mixture and 1/2 Cup White wine to the slow cooker. Cook on low heat until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees f - about 3 to 4 hours.
  • Remove the bay leaves and discard them. If you prefer a thicker sauce, transfer the chicken to a platter with a slotted spoon. Gradually stir in a slurry of 2 teaspoons flour or cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water to thicken the sauce. Add the chicken back to the slow cooker and heat it through and serve.
  • Optional - Make it fresh. Stir in a little bit of lemon juice, capers and parsley before serving.
