Slow Cooker 5-Ingredient Tuscan Chicken Directions:
If desired, lightly coat the slow cooker insert with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer.
Pour the Tuscan Italian dressing evenly over the chicken. Scatter the cream cheese cubes on top, then sprinkle with the Parmesan.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is tender and the thickest part of each breast reaches 165°F.
Gently stir the sauce around the chicken until the cream cheese is blended in. Stir in the spinach, cover, and let it wilt in the hot sauce for about 10 minutes.
Serve the chicken whole, sliced, or gently shredded, with the creamy spinach sauce spooned over it.
Practical Woman's Secret
Stir the sauce before adding the spinach. Any soft bits of cream cheese are easier to blend in while you can still see them.
Serving and Storage
Serve over egg noodles or rice to catch the sauce. Refrigerate leftover chicken and sauce together in a shallow, covered container within 2 hours. Use within 3 to 4 days and reheat to 165°F.
