I love the combination of flavors and textures in this simple recipe for Crockpot Pizza Chicken. Even though it cooks in your crockpot, it only cooks for 4-5 hours, so you can start it in the afternoon.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 5 hours

Total Time: 5 hours, 20 minutes

Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients:

  • 8 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 bell peppers, cut into 1" pieces
  • 2 cups pasta or pizza sauce
  • 2 ounces sliced pepperoni
  • 1 cup shredded pizza cheese

Preparation:

Sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning and place in a 4-5 quart crockpot. Top with onions, garlic, and bell peppers and pour pasta or pizza sauce over all. Top with pepperoni. Cover crockpot and cook on low 4-6 hours until chicken is thoroughly cooked.

Stir well, then sprinkle with cheese and let stand 5 minutes to melt cheese. Serve over hot cooked pasta or rice.

I have almost the same recipe but when I make mine I leave out the onions and bell peppers and add a 16oz box of bow tie pasta cooked al dente. I cut the chicken in to cubes and then I add the pasta, chicken and pizza sauce in the crock pot cook on low for 4 to 6 hour and when it done I sprinkle it with mozzarella cheese and some times before I put the cheese on I stir in some pepperoni. My family loves it.
