Ingredients:

1 tsp dried thyme leaves

2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

½ tsp kosher salt

1 tsp honey

1 tbsp minced garlic from about 3 large cloves

¼ tsp ground black pepper

1 c Kalamata olives, drained

1 tsp dried oregano

1 medium red onion, cut into ½-inch chunks

3 tbsp red wine vinegar

Chopped fresh herbs: any mix of basil, parsley, or thyme, optional for serving (I used fresh thyme)

1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

½ c feta cheese, optional for serving

Directions:

Apply cooking spray to a 5-quart slow cooker.

Place a large skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium.

Sprinkle salt and pepper over the chicken to season.

Put the chicken into the skillet, then sear each side for about 2 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Transfer the seared chicken into the prepared slow cooker.

Arrange olives, onions, and pepper around the chicken in the slow cooker.

Add garlic, thyme, red wine vinegar, oregano, and honey into a mixing bowl. Stir everything until well blended.

Pour the mixture over the chicken.

Cover and seal the slow cooker, then cook everything for about 1 ½ hours to 2 hours on a high setting or 3 to 4 hours on a low setting.

Garnish each serving with freshly chopped herbs and feta cheese.

Serve and enjoy!
