Crock Pot Marry Me Chicken

 

I have made Marry Me Chicken in a skillet before and it is absolutely delicious. So when I saw a crock pot version I knew I needed to make. When I made the skillet version there was a decent amount of sauce and mashed potatoes seemed like a good idea for all the delicious sauce.

Besides being delicious this chicken is super easy. The sauce gets made and poured into the crock pot and then the chicken is added. Place on the lid and let the crock pot do all the work.
