Amish Italian Chicken In Slow Cooker 3 Ingredients
Ingredients
-
2 pounds chicken meat (boneless and skinless) 4 medium chicken breasts approximately.
-
1 cup bottled Italian salad dressing (zesty or regular)
-
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (in a can or freshly grated)
Slow Cooker Amish Italian Chicken: Directions
-
Lay the uncooked chicken breasts in an even layer in the bottom of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker.
-
Add the Italian dressing to a small bowl or a measuring cup and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until the latter has been distributed evenly.
-
evenly pour in the Italian dressing and Parmesan mixture over the chicken breasts to ensure that all the pieces are covered. At this point, use a spoon to push the chicken around to allow the dressing to run underneath too.
-
Add the lid and cook on LOW 4 to 5 hours or cook on HIGH 2 to 3 hours until the chicken is very tender and shreds easily with a fork. Do not open the lid every now and then, this increases the time of cooking.
-
When the cooking liquid is cooked, add a pinch of salt or black pepper to taste and add more seasoning, should it be required. They are normally sufficiently salty with the dressing and Parmesan.
-
Eat the chicken breasts whole with a ladleful of the delicious cooking juices in the top, or shred the chicken in the slow cooker and mix it with the juices and serve it.
