Slow Cooker Chicken & Zucchini
Make this Chicken, Zucchini, and Spinach right in the slow cooker. Eat alone or spooned over your favorite noodles.
Servings 4 -6 servings
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
- 1 jar ~26 oz your favorite pasta sauce
- 2 medium zucchinis chopped
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- salt & pepper to taste
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach
- your favorite shredded cheese I used an Italian blend
Instructions
- Spray the bottom of your slow cooker with non-stick spray.
- Cut your chicken into small pieces and season with salt & pepper.
- To the slow cooker, add in the cubed chicken, pasta sauce, chopped zucchini, diced onion, and minced garlic. Stir to combine.
- Cook on low for 7-8 hours.
- One half hour before done, add in the baby spinach and sprinkle with about 1/2-1 cup of shredded cheese. Replace lid and let spinach wilt and cheese melt.
- In that last half hour, I made some bowtie pasta to serve with the chicken and zucchini.
- Spoon mixture over noodles and serve, or it's good as is.
