-
Add tomatoes and pasta sauce to a 3-6 quart slow cooker.

Add chicken breasts and press down into the sauce.

Cook on low for 3-5 hours, until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F. The exact cook time will depend on your slow cooker — a fuller slow cooker will take longer to cook, so a larger one will cook faster.
