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.

Ferber's, now Famous, Spaghetti Sauce

This sauce recipe was based on a Jo Mama's World Famous Spaghetti sauce recipe that I modified for taste. When I make this sauce, it quickly disappears in my house. Everyone seems to loves this sauce.

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

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

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

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

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
