Slow Cooker Italian Chicken Dinner
THIS ONE-POT SLOW COOKER ITALIAN CHICKEN DINNER IS SURE TO PLEASE THE ENTIRE FAMILY!
I love a one-pot dinner, don’t you? Though I am not working anymore I feel like I am busier than ever. Girl Scout cookie season has started and that keeps us out of the house until dinner time. A meal like this keeps us from driving through McDonald’s. This meal layers up really fast in the slow cooker. Whole boneless chicken breast, Yukon gold potatoes, diced red onion, a bag of baby carrots, then I add a can of Italian recipe diced tomatoes and then some Olive Garden brand Italian dressing, and a touch of parmesan cheese. Easy peasy! And you won’t believe how good it turns out! The reason is the Italian dressing, it has SO much flavor.
Below is what the meal looks like after cooking. I like to serve it with more parmesan cheese and some crusty bread.
