Materials

10 small pitted green olives
1/3 cup pitted prunes, halved
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 Tbsp. fresh oregano leaves, loosely packed and chopped

2 Tbsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
2 bay leaves
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper

Instructions

In a bowl or zip-top bag, add ingredients green olives through black pepper. Mix well. Add chicken (leaving out brown sugar and white wine). Turn to coat chicken and refrigerate for eight hours, or overnight.
Place the marinated chicken and all the juices into the slow cooker. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top, then add the white wine.
