Notes

For best results, be sure to evenly distribute the parmesan mixture over the chicken and pour the chicken broth around the edges of the slow cooker. This will help ensure the chicken stays moist and the parmesan forms a delicious crust. The dish can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
