Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour

- 12 slices mozzarella cheese
- 1 (3 ounce) package Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons oregano
- 2 tablespoons basil

Instructions
- Spread flour on a shallow plate. Beat eggs in a bowl. Pour bread crumbs into a shallow bowl. Dredge chicken breasts in flour. Dip in egg and roll in bread crumbs to coat.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry breaded chicken breasts, 2 at a time, until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining butter and chicken breasts.

- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.
- Substitute margarine for the butter if desired.
- Leftovers are best reheated in the oven at 275 degrees F (135 degrees C) for about 15 to 20 minutes instead of microwaving.

Sorry for the bad picture – re-sizing it so I could put it on here affected the quality, but let’s just say this like it is: This was DELICIOUS!
Amazing recipe. Better than a traditional recipe we made for chicken parm a few weeks ago (with using a slow cooker)
Delicious, whole family ate it and loved it!
I followed the directions fully (with the exception of putting my slow cooker on high because it tends to run low, and for closer to three and a half hours because I had to run some last-minute errands), and the chicken didn’t even cook all the way through. While it was good for the first couple bites before I realized it was still uncooked in the middle, this definitely isn’t something I’ll be attempting again.
I have made this several times. It always comes out great and is a real crowd pleaser.
I made no changes, and my kids and grand children loved it!
Crockpot recipes are supposed to be easy and save time. You might as well just skip the crockpot and do this in the oven. It takes less time.
Easy and delicious! I did add some extra garden fresh herbs during the cooking process to give it a little more kick!
This was a good recipe. I used fresh garlic and seasoned the chicken directly, then added the sauce. It was a little heavy with oregano, so I’ll reduce it next time. We had this with fettuccini.
Came out great! Chicken is moist; the whole thing is delicious. I served it over angel hair.
turned out great! thx,
Followed the recipe but skipped the crock pot entirely. Baked at 375 for one hour. ( I had other things in the oven, so turned it up a bit. ) Turned out great!
This is very tasty and we enjoyed it. I followed one of the other reviewers’ suggestion to mix the spices into the marinara sauce. My only complaint was that when I took the breasts out of the slow cooker, the breaded coating fell off the entire side of 2 or 3 of the chicken breasts. I think I”ll repeat it but cook it in baking dish in oven instead.
No changes…do it again
This was a big hit in our family! I followed the recipe except I didn’t dip chicken in the flour first. I made homemade sauce. It was delicious but not as simple as normal crockpot recipes.
DDEE LICIOUS!!!!!!
Just ok by me…………
This recipe is absolutely delicious!
Really good.
Easy to make – quite good.
I will make this again and again! I served it over spaghetti squash. Delicious!
