One of our go-to dairy-free, gluten-free, easy weeknight meals I’ve been making quite a bit is Crock Pot Tuscan Chicken!

Inspired by Olive Garden’s tuscan chicken, this kid-friendly meal offers a simple and healthy twist. It’s loaded with fresh garlic, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes in a delicious cream sauce. Perfect for serving over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles (see ingredient notes).

It will also fill your home with the most delicious aroma, making it a meal that everyone loves to come home to.

Crock Pot Tuscan Chicken Ingredient Notes

I love how simple this recipe is. It only requires a few healthy ingredients:

Chicken: I prefer boneless, skinless chicken, but you can also use chicken thighs for this recipe.
Garlic: Freshly minced, if possible!
Italian Seasoning: store-bought or homemade.
Spinach: Use fresh. Frozen spinach doesn’t work as well in this recipe.
Sun Dried Tomatoes: You’re going to want to drain and chop these.
Coconut Milk: Get the full fat!
Cheese: For a dairy-free option, you can use nutritional yeast. If you prefer regular cheese, use parmesan!
Salt & Pepper

What to Serve with Crock Pot Tuscan Chicken

Rice: Our personal favorite way to serve this meal is over a bed of rice (regular rice or cauliflower rice for lower carb). The sauce is SO insanely delicious and the rice perfectly soaks it up.
Pasta: Gluten-free noodles, regular noodles, or zucchini noodles — depending on preference/dietary need.
Mashed Potatoes: Regular or cauliflower
Veggies: Broccoli, Green Beans, etc.
