We consider the production of a single top quark in association with a Higgs boson at the LHC. In particular, we compute the cross sections for the processes $p p \to t h j$, $t h b$, $t h W$, $t h j j$, $t h j b$, $t h W j$, $t h W b$ in presence of the anomalous $W t b, W W h$ and $t t h$ couplings. We find that the anomalous $Wtb$ and $tth$ couplings can enhance the cross sections significantly. If these couplings are indeed anomalous, then with enough data, one should be able to observe the production of the Higgs boson in association with a single top quark.
