Slow Cooker Skinless Balsamic Chicken
Chicken cooked in the slow cooker that is so moist and tender that it falls right off of the bones. We all loved this one, including the grandkids. I removed the skin and fat before I slow cooked it so all that seasoning went right into the meat.

Ingredients
In a small bowl combine the dry ingredients.
Place the skinless chicken into the slow cooker.
Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken.
Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the chicken.

Cook on low for 8 hours (high
for 4 hours) or until the chicken
is 165 degrees at the thickest part.
Optional: Turn the chicken pieces
over half way through cooking.
Place on a serving plate then serve.

Ha-Ha But let me tell you….My husband only eats the breast meat too and he went crazy over this. So never say never, you may just be a leg man too!
Is there any wrong way to have chicken? Lol!
Not at all!
What sides would you recommend for this yummy chicken?
I made stuffing and corn but anything will work. For lunch the next day I just ate the chicken as it was so good leftover and cold too.
I love when you share easy recipes. Thanks for sharing.
That is my favorite way to cook….easy! You are so welcome!
I bet the whole house smelled wonderful…this has made me quite hungry! 🙂
Yes it sure did. When I make this I always make a lot because it is so good for lunch too. Thanks so much!

Nell uses our pressure cooker to make a wicked good butter chicken. Similar idea.
I bought a pressure cooker years ago to can our home grown green beans. Been afraid to use it for anything else…lol
I love it when is so tender that it falls off of the bones 😋😋😋
And not dried out! Thanks!

Yes me too! That wonderful aroma and suppers done! Thanks so much! ❤
Thank you!
Delicious food… 👍🌹👳
Thank you Michael!
I have never touched raw chicken – what kind of cook am I?
You can use gloves?????
I use gloves for everything in the house that I touch, chemicals especially, even dishwashing as my hands used to be very sensitive and when I workjed on site, I had an allergy to formaldehyde that is found in printer toner. I handled the paper that I xeroxed or received by fax (since it had toner) with cotton gloves. My hands would get red and cracked until I discovered the allergy. I don’t like the “ick factor” so I would use it for raw meat. I don’t cook anything though, just using canned soups so don’t touch it.
Mmmm! I love balsamic vinegar, especially on chicken. Thanks for this fab recipe. I can already tell it’s going to be a fave in our house.
It was a huge hit here too. It was funny because I have made chicken in the slow cooker many times, but my husband thought this was the first time…hahahah
I just bought a bunch of legs and thighs so I know what I am going to do with them. I am drooling here.
I don’t know what it is about balsamic vinegar but it makes food taste so good! Let me know how you like it Carla.
I definitely will.
I love balsamic vinegar–will have to try this recipe! Thank you, Diane!
You’re welcome Nancy! Let me know how you liked it.
