Peel and mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Pour a thin layer of the balsamic mixture into the bottom of the Crock Pot.
Place the chicken breasts on top of the balsamic mixture in the Crock Pot in a single layer.
Pour the remaining balsamic mixture evenly over the chicken breasts to coat them thoroughly.
Add the low-sodium chicken broth around the edges of the Crock Pot to prevent sticking.
Scatter the cherry tomatoes over and around the chicken.
Place the fresh rosemary sprigs on top of the chicken and tomatoes.
Cover the Crock Pot with its lid and set it to cook on low heat for 4 hours or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Once done, remove the rosemary sprigs and serve the chicken with the cooked tomatoes and sauce drizzled over the top. Pair with rice, pasta, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
