Chicken Parmesan in the Slow Cooker
Definitely a keeper. Easy to assemble, house smells good all day, no mad rush at dinner time AND the girls (both of them!) like it! I used 2 chicken breasts and halved everything else and we had some left over. Probably enough to feed Jason too. (Half recipe fit perfect in 2 qt slow cooker)
From the Recipe Shoebox.
The ingredients:
2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (I cut mine into strips, to make them into more reasonable serving sizes for the kids)
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
1 Tbs. olive oil
1 egg, beaten (I used egg whites)
4-6 slices mozzarella cheese (I used shredded mozzarella)
1 jar (28-ounces) favorite marinara sauce
Directions: Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over the bottom of the crockpot stoneware.
In a medium bowl, beat egg. In second medium bowl, mix the bread crumbs, spices, and grated Parmesan cheese all together.
Dip chicken in beaten egg and then toss into bread crumb mixture to coat completely on both sides. Place chicken breasts on bottom of crockpot. Place a layer of mozzarella slices on top of breaded chicken breasts. Cover cheese layered chicken with entire jar of sauce.
Place lid of crockpot securely on and turn heat to LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours.
Serve over cooked pasta of your choice. Enjoy!
