Crockpot Catalina Chicken is sweet and tangy and makes a delicious family meal served over rice. Add a green salad and you have a filling, nutritious, and economical meal the whole family will enjoy.
This Crockpot Catalina Chicken only takes minutes to prepare and then the slow cooker does all the work for you. Just place your chicken breasts in a greased 6-quart slow cooker and pour a simple mixture of Catalina dressing, peach (or apricot) preserves, and a packet of dry onion soup mix over them. If you want it to be spicy, add 1/2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.
The amount of time it takes chicken breasts to cook in the crockpot varies greatly depending on the brand of slow cooker you have and the age of your slow cooker. Newer models tend to cook faster. The size of your chicken breasts is also a factor. Cooking time can vary anywhere between 3 to 6 hours.
This is a really good Peach Preserves.

Thought it was a bit bland.Added pepper flacks but still not as tasty as you would think it could be.If I was to make it again would you chicken thighs, not breast
Hi MJ!
Hope you see my comments from a few days ago. When I was shredding the chicken, it was bland. Shredding helped get the flavor thru and it was really good. Also used Hot Pepper Peach rather than plain peach. Hope this helps. I will make it again.
Yum…anything with Catalina dressing is delicious. We make this or one with cranberries once a week…easy
Dinner doesn’t get any simpler than this! Easy to throw together and everyone enjoyed this one. This will be repeated. Thinking it would be good with porkloin too.
If you use the hot pepper peach preserves do you still add the red pepper flakes? I do like things spicy but not super spicy.
Can’t really rate it, just commenting…I think it would pair nicely with pork chops or a pork tenderloin. Going to try that.
The dish looks very delicious and tasty and yummy.
DELICIOUS AND JUICY CHICKEN.
