Slow Cooker Coq Au Vin

I've been making this all the time lately. I think we have had it three times in the past two weeks. It's so delicious and easy.

I know, I know. It's not *really* coq au vin. I modified it to use ingredients I like.

1 pound chicken breasts
1 onion, I like Italian red
3 cloves garlic
5 slices bacon
2 medium potatoes, I like gold
1 cup chopped carrots
1 cup red wine
1 cup tomato sauce
salt and pepper to taste

When I cook this in a slow cooker, I just dump everything in and let it cook for 4-6 hours. When I cook it in a pot, I sauté the onions and garlic for a few minutes, add the bacon and cook for a few minutes, then add everything else. That all simmers for 1-2 hours.

I don't like mushrooms and I prefer Italian red onion to pearl. So, it's my own spin. I'm falling in love with my slow cooker.
