Steps:

  • Place chicken into the slow cooker or crock-pot. I use a 5 qt crock-pot.
  • Pour chicken broth over chicken.
  • Add your pesto sauce and garlic, then top with salt and pepper.
  • Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, the longer you cook this the better it is.
  • Serve over rice or with mashed potatoes. You can use the sauce for topping for the mashed potatoes.

4 -6 chicken thighs, I like to use skinelss thights
2 -3 cups chicken broth
3 -4 tablespoons pesto sauce, I use the store bough in a jar, but I'm sure you can use homemade pesto sauce
1 tablespoon garlic, crushed
salt and pepper, to taste
