Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 16 oz jarred Alfredo sauce
- 14.5 oz canned diced tomatoes (with juices)
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
- 4 cups cooked pasta or rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Lightly grease the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray or a thin layer of oil to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot in a single layer.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Alfredo sauce, diced tomatoes with their juices, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the sauce.
Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are completely coated.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or HIGH for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Once the chicken is done cooking, carefully remove it from the crock pot. If desired, shred or slice the chicken into serving portions.
Stir the grated Parmesan cheese into the sauce in the crock pot, mixing until melted and incorporated into the sauce.
Return the chicken to the crock pot and gently toss it in the sauce to coat.
Serve the chicken and sauce over cooked pasta or rice, if desired, and garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
Enjoy your Crock Pot Chicken with Tomato Alfredo Sauce!
