Ingredients
Method
- Place chopped green bell peppers, onions, and minced garlic into the slow cooker.
- Add crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken broth, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes.
- Stir until the tomato paste is fully dissolved.
- Add the chicken breasts into the liquid mixture.
- Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or high for 3 hours.
- Remove chicken, shred with a fork, and return to the slow cooker.
- Stir in the parmesan cheese and cooked pasta if using.
- Garnish with fresh basil and additional parmesan before serving.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. The flavors often improve the next day as they meld together. For the best texture, cook pasta separately and add to the bowl when serving.
