4-6 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
2 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 medium onion, thinly sliced (not chopped)
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar (for gluten-free, use white balsamic vinegar)
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp.  dried oregano
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. dried rosemary
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

1. Begin by pouring the olive oil on bottom of slow cooker.  
2. Season each chicken breast with salt and pepper, then place on top of olive oil in slow cooker.  
3. Place sliced onion on top of chicken, and then all dried herbs and garlic cloves.
