Instructions
-
Place chicken in the crock pot:
Arrange chicken breasts in the bottom of a lightly greased slow cooker. -

Pour the sauce over the chicken. Dot with slices of butter. -
Cook:
Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until chicken is tender and easily shredded or sliced. -

Notes
-
You can shred the chicken into the sauce for a creamy pasta mix or serve whole pieces on top.

Add sliced mushrooms or spinach to the slow cooker for extra veggies.
