Slow Cooker Pizza Chicken

5 Pizzas398 cals

Three words, SLOW COOKER PIZZA! Yes, it’s amazing and yes, it’s actually LOW CARB! This Slow Cooker Pizza Chicken recipe tastes just as good as it looks, is packed with protein, comes in unlimited variations, and is great for meal prep!

Start this one by taking out your slow cooker. Coat your slow cooker with some non stick cooking spray or put in a slow cooker liner for easy clean up.

All you need to do now is add into it by layers 2 1/2 pounds of chopped up chicken breast, 20 ounces of the lowest sodium pizza sauce you can find, 1 teaspoon of some garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of oregano, whatever chopped up vegetables you want, some chopped up mushrooms, and some mini turkey pepperoni slices.

Throw your lid on and cook your slow cooker pizza chicken on low heat for 6-8 hours. You can also do high heat for 4-6 hours but I prefer low heat for this recipe.

Slow Cooker Pizza Chicken Cheese

Now I’m sure you’re wondering where the cheese is?! Well around 20-30 minutes before it’s done, sprinkle on 1 cup of a reduced fat pizza blend cheese or whatever cheese you want.

Put the cover back on and let that cook until melted!

Once melted, divide everything up into portions and throw them in the fridge for easy access. You should get 10 servings under 200 calories and around 5g of net carbs per serving.

This recipe will last around 5-7 days in the fridge.

I hope you guys like this one as much as me. Let me know down below what you guys like on your pizza so I can try out some new variations!

    I wouldn’t suggest 8 hours. Dried out my chicken

    Im looking forward to trying this! What would you estimate the macros to be per serving if not using turkey pepperoni? Thank you!

      Hope you like it Emma! You can search for the calories of mini turkey pepperoni and subtract them. I think around 4-5g fat and 9-10g protein.

    Can this be cooked in a pressure cooker?

  4. Kasimir on May 17, 2017 at 12:00 am

    Is it ok to use chicken thighs instead of breasts?

  5. brad on April 8, 2017 at 12:00 am

    can you used canned chicken instead? i used an equal amount by weight of canned chicken, and have no idae how you got to 2000 calories for the whole recipe

      You could and I assume you did – how was it? Did you use full fat ingredients?
