Lemon and Olive Chicken - Slow Cooker

This is yet another from Pintrest and adds to my growing slow cooker repertoire.
The dish was nice. A positive verdict from all who ate it.

The cumin added an interesting flavour and I loved the olives with the lemon.
My slow cooker is a quite fast - I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not?
The meat was cooked is about 3-4 hours on slow.
The sauce was a quite thick (maybe because I added it to the slow cooker while it was hot)  I so I added more chicken stock to it.
