Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper 
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 2 teaspoons Italian herbs
  • 1 jar fat-free marinara sauce (or your favorite)
  • 3 ounces lite mozzarella
  • 4 tablespoons parmesan cheese
  • fresh basil optional

Instructions

  • Place the 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts in a slow cooker. Season both sides with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, and Italian herbs.
  • Pour one jar of fat-free marinara sauce or your favorite marinara sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for 2.5 to 3 hours or until the chicken is fully cooked, which is 165℉. Optional: You can keep the chicken breasts whole. Or, once cooked, shred the chicken with a fork. Then, add it back to the slow cooker. Both options are great!
  • Before removing the chicken, sprinkle the lite mozzarella and parmesan cheese on top. Put the lid back on the slow cooker to melt the cheese, which will take about 5 minutes. Top with fresh basil and enjoy!
