Place chicken and marinade in slow cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours.
Just before dinner, dice and saute potatoes in EVOO (I usually add about 1/4 cup of water to help them cook faster).
Steam broccoli in steamer for 3-4 minutes, or microwave for 3 minutes.
Serve chicken, potatoes, broccoli and pear sauce...A warm and well balanced meal for the "first snowfall" day!
