SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN PARMESAN



Slow-Cooker Chicken Parmesan image

s my love making this satisfying dish--it's easy and elegant, and the slow cooker minimizes my time in the kitchen. I make this during football season, too. For game days, I skip the pasta and serve the chicken on submarine rolls with a bit of the sauce and some chopped lettuce. You could also cut the chicken breasts in half and make sliders. -Bonnie Hawkins, Elkhorn, Wisconsin
