Crockpot Italian Mozzarella Chicken

Crockpot Italian Mozzarella Chicken
I love that the chicken goes into the broiler at the end. It perfectly melts the cheese…so it not only looks amazing, it tastes amazing too.

Crockpot Italian Mozzarella Chicken

Ingredients:
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper
1 tbs italian seasoning
3 cloves garlic, minced
24 oz jar marinara sauce
1½ c mozzarella cheese
8 oz pkg penne pasta, cooked
⅓ c green olives, chopped
¼ c grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:
Sprinkle chicken breasts with seasonings on both sides
Place seasoned chicken breasts in a lightly greased crock pot
Sprinkle garlic evenly on top of the chicken breasts and cover with marinara sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, chicken should be cooked through and tender.
Place chicken breasts on a lightly greased baking sheet and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, set aside
Add your olives and Parmesan cheese to your sauce in your crock pot, stir and heat through.
Place your baking sheet with your chicken in your broiler for 2-3 mins until the cheese is melted and golden (keep a close watch so it doesn't burn)
Pour your sauce over your cooked pasta and mix well.
Serve chicken over pasta.
