Notes

For a more intense flavor, marinate the chicken in the olive oil and spice mixture for a few hours or overnight before cooking. Additionally, you can add vegetables such as bell peppers or artichokes to the crockpot for added texture and flavor. If the dish seems too liquidy after cooking, remove the chicken and reduce the sauce on the stovetop to thicken it before serving.
