I will be joining these fabulous parties and blogs:
That looks like a really good sandwich on the Hawaiian buns. I’ll have to remember that — it would be fun for a party so you don’t have to fuss too close to the time.
Whoa, that looks delicious! I am pinning this right now (and wish I could eat some right now! And, yes, it is only 8:24 in the morning!) Thanks so much for sharing it with us at Thursday Favorite Things!
Wonderfully Wicked Chicken will be great for the season! Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us at Full Plate Thursday. Hope you are having a great week and come back to see us real soon!

I was on vacation when you posted this, but I saved it. Oh my, thank goodness! Pinned, and will definitely be making this. I have made tenders with Ranch dressing and Ritz crackers that have also been called crack – from kids to seniors – but they took so long, dredging, frying, and repeating. I love slow cook meals. Thanks!

Jenna, my family would love this chicken dish. It would be great for a Sunday night dinner.
Hopefully we are going to have a cool down by Sunday. Happy Tuesday!
It is certainly a breeze to make!
This sounds delicious! And easy, too. I love using my slow cooker, especially in the fall and winter months. I’ll have to try this recipe.
Fix and forget! Easy peasy!

You could set up a buffet let everyone make their own!
I think I have everything to make this, Jenna! I’m with you and love chicken thighs. You share the best recipes, and I appreciate you!
thanks Kitty, I am so glad you enjoyed it!
Definitely looks like a winner, Jenna!! A must try for sure. Thanks!!
so easy…
This certainly looks interesting!
ha, well it’s not gourmet cooking that’s for sure, but it hits the spot after a busy day 🙂
This sounds like an interesting crock pot chicken dish to make Jenna. Thanks for the recipe! Have a nice week. 🙂
Very easy and family friendly, thanks Julie!
Slow cooking suits me to a T and I’m always adding a new recipe.
Enjoy!
Sounds delicious Jenna, love the idea of serving it in a slider form!
yes, yummy on a bun!
Looks so easy and comforting! I will have to look for the bacon you used. Always looking for a shortcut in the kitchen! 💗
It was the first time I’ve tried the pre-cooked bacon, and for a dish like this it was very good! Look for it where the croutons and salad stuff is…
Oh this looks yummy! Will be perfect for the football game day food table. Thanks for posting!
hi Sandy, yes this is perfect for a game day table!
