Slow Cooker Arrabbiata Chicken

 This is so flavorful! Not to mention easy! 

Level 1: Slow cooker, baby
Servings: 4
Ingredients: 
Canola Oil Spray
2 large or 3 medium boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 jar Barilla Arrabbiata sauce (in pasta aisle) 
2 cups frozen peas, washed and drained
1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese
Serve over angel hair pasta or alone

1. Cook on low for 8 hours. Add spray, chicken, whole jar of sauce, and peas. I also toss in a shot glass of water and brandy. Vodka is also good to sub for brandy.  
2. With half hour left, break up chicken with a silicone spatula or spoon, it will be slow cooked and tender. Add cheese. Let cook for last 30 minutes.
3. That's it! Nomz! 

Variation on time and temperature: 
1. If you are cooking on high for 4 hours, first hour only add spray and add chicken. 
2. After 1 hour of cooking, add sauce, peas, water, and preferred alcohol. With 30 minutes left, add cheese
3. After 4 hours, break up the chicken and let cook for 10 more minutes. If chicken doesn't break up, cook another 30 minutes then try
