Description

Crockpot Italian Chicken is a simple yet flavorful dish that brings together tender chicken, creamy Parmesan, and tangy Italian dressing for a mouthwatering meal. Perfect for busy days, this recipe requires minimal effort and guarantees smiles around the dinner table.


Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 (16-ounce) bottle Italian dressing (Olive Garden™ Signature Italian Dressing recommended)
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

 



Instructions

  1. Prep the Dressing Mixture
    In a medium bowl, mix the Italian dressing and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
  2. Arrange the Chicken
    Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker in a single layer. Pour the dressing mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated.
  3. Cook the Chicken
    Cover and cook on Low for 6-8 hours, or until the chicken is tender and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  4. Serve and Enjoy
    Carefully remove the chicken from the slow cooker. Serve hot with sides like pasta, rice, or vegetables. Spoon the sauce over the chicken for added flavor.

Notes

  • For a creamier sauce, add 8 ounces of cream cheese to the dressing mixture.
  • To make this a one-pot meal, toss in vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or mushrooms.
  • Ensure even cooking by arranging the chicken in a single layer.
