There are some days when we don't have much time after I get home before we have to run out of the house for something else... tonight, it's Girl Scouts. Instead of running to McDonald's or something similar, or asking my mother-in-law to feed the kids before I get home, I like crockpot meals.
This one is really yummy and both kids liked it. I'd say that's a keeper.
I served it over a package of fresh pasta that I had left over from The Hubby's New Year's Eve Chicken Parm, but of course any thicker noodle would work.
Crockpot Mediterranean Chicken
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I put them in the crockpot frozen)
1 large can (28oz) crushed tomatoes
1/2 small onion, chopped
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp oregano
2 Tbsp cooking sherry
1 c cubed feta cheese, drained
Put the chicken in your crockpot (3 1/2 qt works well). Cover with the tomatoes and the rest of the ingredients except for the feta. Cook all day (8-10 hours, or until chicken is done - less if chicken is not frozen when you start)
Before serving, shred up the chicken with two forks and stir in the feta. Serve over wide noodles or rice.
I tend to get really dry chicken breasts in the crockpot. Wondering if it has ever been an issue for you???
ReplyDeleteYou said crock pot, I came running :) lol
ReplyDeleteThis sound delicious - I will have to give it a try!
When I start with frozen chicken, it doesn't dry out for me. When I've started with thawed chicken, I've had it dry out.
