Crockpot Lazy Chicken

I cannot believe I needed a recipe for this.


I was perusing the Crockpot Lady's blog and found this "recipe" for Lazy Chicken. I don't know if it's because I used a big pot, but I set it for 8 hours and happened to be home after about 5 and half or 6, and it was totally done. I shut it off, and then just set it back on low for about 15 minutes later on.

Also, I ended up adding a can of tomato sauce to give it some more volume. Again, this could have been because I used a 6qt; maybe a smaller pot would have been better.



Oh, and the best part of this dinner? Toddler-approved!



Ingredients
  • 2ish frozen chicken breasts
  • 26oz spaghetti sauce, jarred or homemade

Place frozen breasts in crockpot and cover with sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours, or on high for 4. Shred chicken with forks and serve over pasta.

  4. Seriously, Bless you for taking the time to post this. IT WAS FANTASTIC. I did sprinkle some garlic salt, basil & oregano onto the chicken before I dumped the sauce over it. The house smelled so good and the chicken was so delicious. I cant wait to work this heavily into the rotation. I am not the hugest crockpot fan because a lot of the things I make I dont care for, but this was so easy and tasted really great THANKS!
