What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 2 Chicken breasts - Cubed
  • 1 Small Onion - Diced
  • 6 Cloves Garlic - Minced
  • 1/2 6 oz can Green Olives - quartered
  • 2 15.5 oz cans Cannellini beans - Drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup Marinated artichoke hearts - Chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Marinade from artichoke hearts
  • 2 cups Collard greens or Kale - Chopped
  • 2 Celery stalks - Diced
  • 2 Carrots - Peeled and diced
  • 2 teaspoons Dried Rosemary - Crushed
  • 1 teaspoon Mushroom Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Sage
  • 1 pinch Chili flakes
  • 12 cups Chicken stock
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese - Grated
  • 1/2 bunch Italian Parsley - Minced
Directions
  1. Set up a slow cooker and turn on to high. Place a large non-stick skillet over a med-high burner. Once hot add in half the olive oil and half the chicken. Let this brown on all sides then dump into the slow cooker and repeat with remaining oil and chicken.
  2. Reserve the grated Parmesan and minced Italian parsley as toppings and dump everything else in the slow cooker. Put the lid on it and cook on high for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, till it’s hot and bubbly. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and Italian parsley and serve.
  3. Recipe Notes You can skip the step of sauteing the chicken but it won’t have the same depth of flavor, just make sure the chicken is fully cooked (165F internal temp) before serving. Alternatively you can cook the whole chicken breasts in there, cooking for 3 hours, and then shred them before serving.

This very disappointing! There are, obviously, many ingredients missing from your list and instructions. What and how much broth or water? What about the beans you mention in the description and I can see carrots in the photo but they're not listed. I really want to make this but with so much missing it would be bland.

I'm not sure why it didn't save the whole recipe. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I'll work on fixing it and check if it did the same thing with my other recipes. In the mean time you can see the whole recipe on my blog here...https://www.astraykitchen.com/slow-cooker-tuscan-chicken-soup/
