Chicken Saltimbocca - Crockpot Recipe

New Year and new recipes to try!
I love trying new food ideas on the family; getting stuck in a rut eating the same food is never fun.
This recipe I found while checking out the Taste of Home website and it was one that I simply had to try.
Now, if I had paid a bit more attention to the recipe I would have noticed that it was to be cooked in the crock pot.
As you know, I love crock pot recipes and that was not an issue.
What was the issue?
I waited until 4 pm to get started on the recipe because somewhere in my mind I had it baking in an oven.
*oops*
The recipe is absolutely delish! The kiddos kept raving how good it was, dh enjoyed it and Nateman went back for seconds that hardly ever happens!
I thought the recipe needed a bit of color so I added in the peas.
The chicken would be quite a bit tender when cooked in a crock pot, but the oven did a fine job with this recipe.
Enjoy!
