Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs chicken breasts fully thawed before slow cooking
  • 1.5 cups peaches sliced
  • 0.33 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme

Method
 

  1. Place the fully thawed chicken in the slow cooker and scatter the peach slices around it.
  2. Whisk together the balsamic, honey, garlic, and thyme, then pour over the top.
  3. Cover; cook on low for 6 hours until chicken is tender and peaches are jammy. Thermometer-check the thickest chicken pieces starting after 3 hours; thawed breasts may finish early. Stop when chicken is tender and 165°F.
  4. Slice the chicken and spoon the peach balsamic sauce over the top.
  5. Garnish with extra thyme and serve.

Notes

Frozen peaches work just as well if fresh aren't in season.
Thaw chicken fully in the refrigerator before beginning. The listed time is a planning estimate; thickness and slow-cooker performance vary.
