Crock pot Italian chicken turned out so flavorful. Thanks to Hunk of Meat Monday: Crock Pot Italian Chicken I had a quick meal on a busy day. Wasn’t sure what I was going to do with the meat but I quickly put it in the crock pot and left the house.
When I returned home, I simple pulled the chicken out and shredded it then returned it to the pot. I then gave my family the option of having it as a sandwich, quesadilla, or atop a salad. We all tried it a different way. I ate it on a salad for three days in a row it was so good. This was not to spicy for the kids because there are no seeds left in the peppers.
I am still searching for a substitute for an Italian seasoning package. I hate to use those packets of seasoning. They do taste so good and are quick. Need a healthier option will keep you posted.
Crock Pot Italian Chicken:
- 2 lbs. of chicken, mixture of breasts and boneless skinless thighs works great
- 1 package of italian seasoning/dressing mixture
- up to a 12 oz. jar of mild pepper rings or seed and slice whole ones, plus 2-4 Tbs of juice from jar
Place chicken in slow cooker.
Sprinkle with seasoning and top with peppers. Add a bit of juice from the pepper jar.
Turn the crock pot to low and cook on low for about 8 hours. Around hour 7 you can remove the chicken shred and return to the pot.
