  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup white wine

  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 {16 oz} capellini noodles

  1. Wash and trim chicken of any fat. Cut chicken breasts in halves {lengthwise}. Heat olive oil in skillet with 1 tbsp garlic. Add pieces of chicken and brown all sides evenly. Transfer chicken to slow cooker.
  2. Add broth, wine, leftover garlic, lemon juice, basil, salt and pepper to Crock Pot. Mix together. Pour jar of sun dried tomatoes {with oil} over chicken evenly. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, or until chicken is cooked through. Do not overcook, as chicken will become dry.
