Chicken breasts in the slow cooker have been a classic meal for my entire life. There are so many ways to add flavor and make them a great meal option, and these smothered chicken breasts are some I adapted from a recipe shared in a church cookbook many years ago. They are moist, tender, and have tons of flavor. We serve over rice, but you could easily add over cauliflower rice or pasta if you preferred.

For this recipe, I use the Crockpot 6-Quart Programmable Cook and Carry slow cooker. It's my favorite slow cooker because it is so versatile. Any slow cooker will work of course, but if you are looking for a good one, I can't say enough about this one for ease of use and functionality.

Ingredients for Smothered Chicken Breasts:

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts

½ red bell pepper, sliced

½ green bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow onion, sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning blend

¼ teaspoon salt

¼-1/2 teaspoon black pepper (depending on your tastes)

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

2 10.5 ounce cans 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup

½ cup water

Directions for Smothered Chicken Breasts:

Line using Crockpot liners or spray bottom of slow cooker.

Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with Italian seasoning blend, salt, and black pepper.

Place the chicken breasts in an even layer on the bottom of slow cooker.

Top chicken with sliced red pepper, onion, and garlic.

In a medium bowl, mix together the 2 cans of cream of chicken soup along with ½ cup of water.

Pour cream soup mixture over the top of chicken and vegetables.

Place lid on the slow cooker and cook on high heat for 3 hours.

Shred chicken and serve with vegetables and sauce over rice or noodles.
