Ingredients
18 oz. Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast 1 jar Ragu Spaghetti Sauce (90 calories per serving)1 1/2 cup Kraft Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Directions
Place chicken in crock-pot. I use "TenderBird" brand frozen chicken tenders (1/2 of 3 lb bag) and I do not thaw. Spoon Ragu sauce over the chicken and cook on low for 6-8 hours. About 15 minutes before serving, sprinkle shredded cheese over the chicken and sauce. Cover and let cheese melt. I serve this with steamed broccoli and a salad.


Note: I have started using Classico brand Fire-Roasted Tomato and Garlic sauce (50 calories per serving).

Makes 6 servings.

     I didn't have spaghetti sauce so I used a big can of diced tomatoes & onions & fresh herbs & defrosted the chicken a bit in the microwave & set it on high for 3+ hrs & turned out marvelous. Thank you for this way too easy recipe. I grow my own herbs in the garden this yr. this has been awesome idea - 7/27/11

     This was great! I added mushrooms and green peppers, then served it over baked polenta rounds. Yum! - 4/4/11

     I made this for Sunday dinner and my family enjoyed it! I seasoned my skinless chicken the night before in "basil & garlic" seasoning and used "fire roasted tomato" bertolli sauce and it was on the money! - 10/12/09

     I tried this the other night and my husband and kids loved it. I used Newman's Tomato/Basil Sauce instead (same calories). Delicious! - 2/20/10

     I made this and my DH loved it. I served it over ziti noddles. The sauce was a little watery but other than that it was good - 4/2/08

     This is really good. I omitted adding the mozz cheese and just served over pasta with parmesan sprinkled on top. Next time I make a serving, I'll add the mozz as written. Steamed Broccoli on the side, this was tasty and super easy. I also added a can of fire roasted diced tomoatoes. - 2/17/21

     I was so pleasantly surprised with this recipe. So super easy, and great flavor! I served mine with bow tie pasta and green beans. I will definitely be making this again. - 5/28/16

     This was great! Soooo easy and the kids loved it too. I served it over Rotini - might add a few veggies next time. - 2/5/13

     in my crock pot right now! Hope they all will like it. Sounds so good. - 1/30/13

     It was OK but not great. For as much as I love RAGU I was disappointed. Instead of melting the cheese I used parm on it and put it over whole grain pasta. Needs some spices but not sure what..might play with it again some time. - 10/18/12
  • PAYES97
     This recipe is pretty good. I added mushrooms to this recipe. I also used about 1 1/2 Tbsp. of flour to thicken the sauce, it was to runny for my taste. I served it over whole wheat penne pasta with veggie sides. It was a hit. Will make again. - 9/28/12

     In the Crock-Pot right now!!! I used Trader Giotto's Bolognese sauce (80 calories per serving). Can not wait to try this!! Will serve with whole wheat penne pasta, a salad, and a little bread for "mopping"!! - 8/29/12
