Crockpot Chicken Parmesan - Modified from the Crockpot Lady
2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 C bread crumbs (I used 1 thick slice from our whole wheat bread)
1/4 C grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning (salt-free)
1/8 tsp. pepper
dash, salt
1-2 tsp. olive oil
1/8 C milk
1/2 - 1 C mozzarella cheese, shredded*
2-4 C spaghetti sauce (we used our homemade)*
*use more if you use more chicken
Tear thick slice of bread into pieces
 |
Place bread in the blender and grate it until in fine particles
 |
Add Parmesan cheese and Italian seasonings, and stir to combine.
 |
 |
Coat the bottom of your crockpot with oil (I used less, since we have a smaller crockpot)
 |
Pour milk into a small bowl, dip chicken in milk, then in the bread crumbs and place in the crockpot.
 |
 |
Cover with freshly grated mozzarella cheese (Crockpot Lady recommends slices)
 |
Top with spaghetti sauce
 |
Cook on low for 6-7 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours. I cooked mine on low for roughly 4 hours, and then on high for about another hour. The chicken was 180 degrees, and tender as can be :)
Boil pasta about 20 minutes before you're ready to eat....we used whole wheat spaghetti noodles
 |
Serve with green veggies, and fococcia bread for a lovely dinner.

The original recipe called for egg rather than milk, and for more oil and cheese. Using our own homemade sauce (chocked full of carrots, mushrooms, peppers and tomatoes) also makes it healthier.

We love chicken parmesan....and I love your version. Thanks for posting to Crock Pot Wednesday. I really appreciate your participation and hope to see you here each week. Thanks again.
Oooooh I love chicken parm but haven't made it in ages because its kind of a lot of work. I'll have to try this, the crockpot makes everything easier :) Thanks for sharing!
I love your version of this. It turns out so perfectly each time I make it!!
I'm making this this week! Thanks for your encouragement on my blog. I am excited to taste this!
Made this for dinner tonight a huge hit! Very tasty will make again
I made this for tonight's dinner and OH YUM! is it good! I just got some out to cool for my son's dinner and I almost ate it all! I will definitely make this again.
This looks delicious! Adding it to my menu this week.
Made this last night....You were right, the chicken is very juicy. We just had trouble with the breading. It fell of in the crockpot. Has this happened to you?
@Cal --
Yes, our breading falls off too -- gets wrapped up in the sauce, which is delicious. For added crunch, I often sprinkle a little more bread crumbs over the top, just before serving.
Oh, and the last time I made it, I reserved the mozzarella cheese, sprinkling the cheese over the top of the entire dish, just a few minutes before serving. I really enjoyed the yummy, melty cheese on the top, coupled with the crunchy panko bread crumbs.
Making this dish today and I'm so excited to try it. Thanks for another great idea!
