Slow Cooker Caesar Chicken Sandwiches

A great easy dinner to start off the work week.  I put 2 lbs of chicken breasts in the crock pot this morning with a cup of chicken stock and let it cook away on low while I was at work.  When I came home, I added a bottle of Caesar dressing, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and a bit of black pepper.  Served on buns with lettuce - yum!

Here's the credit for the recipe.  I'd love to say that I come up with recipes, but sadly I'm not that creative.  Not sure what I would do without the Internet!!

Slow Cooker Chicken Caesar Sandwiches

adapted from Betty Crocker


2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 bottle of your favorite Caesar Dressing (I used Kraft)

1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley (I skipped this, just not a fan of fresh parsley)

1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

2 cups shredded romaine lettuce

12 french hamburger buns or buns of your choice (about 2 1/2 inch)

1. Place chicken in a 3-4 quart slow cooker, cover and cook on low heat for 6-7 hours.

2. Remove chicken from cooker using a slotted spoon. Place on a cutting board and pull chicken into shreds.

3. Place chicken back in the cooker and pour dressing, Parmesan cheese, parsley, and pepper over the top. I only used about 3/4 of the bottle of dressing. Stir until mixed evenly. Cover and cook on high heat for 30-35 minutes or until mixture is hot.

4. Spoon 1/4 cup mixture onto lettuce in each bun and serve!


Cheers!
