Crock-Pot Chicken Parmesan Sandwiches

 

I don't know about anyone else but I love crock-pot recipes! They save a lot of time and are usually pretty easy to make. This weekend I made chicken parmesan sandwich filling in the crock-pot and it was great!

 

I got the recipe from this blog: http://melaniemakes.com/blog/2013/12/slow-cooker-chicken-parmesan-sandwiches.html. I changed a few things but pretty much stayed with the same general idea.

 

 

 

Ingredients:

• 3 chicken breasts (frozen works fine)

• 14.5 oz. can crushed tomatoes

• 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes

• 12 oz. tomato paste

• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded

• 1 large onion, diced

• 1/2 tsp. oregano

• 1/2 tsp. basil

• 1/2 tsp. Italian Seasoning

• Mozzarella cheese (shredded or slices)

• 6 buns (I used hoagie buns)

 

Instructions:

• Add crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, parmesan cheese, onion, oregano, and basil to lightly greased crock-pot.

• Add chicken to the sauce and cook for 4 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low.

• Remove chicken from crock-pot and shred. Return chicken to sauce and stir.

• Put cheese on top half of bun and place in the oven until cheese has melted, you can also toast the bottom half at the same time.

• Scoop chicken parmesan mixture onto bun and enjoy your sandwich!
