    This sounds delicious!! Would this work with bone in / skin on chicken thighs instead? I was debating on trying the thighs in the slow cooker! Thank you so much!

    I thrive in cold, gray, rainy weather. Spring and summer are miserable for me. I have terrible allergies and absolutely hate being hot and sweaty. I get heat rashes and sun poisoning if I’m outside for too long thanks to super-sensitive skin. I’m miserable once it heats up outside and can’t wait for all of the rain fall brings with it. My husband is the same way, so we love the mountains and big cities for vacations—loathe the beach.
    I can’t wait to try this recipe this weekend.

    This made my whole house smell amazing! For some reason, though, after 5 hours the dressing/liquid started to burn on the edges…

    Good recipe but I added 1 can of mushrooms and 1 can of artichoke hearts and 1/2 onion sliced, served over rice delicious

    I use more of the dressing and cheese to make more sauce in crock pot over 2 chicken breasts. Cook 4-5 hrs, shred chicken and then serve over angel hair pasta. Add bread and it’s a pasta meal.

    1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
    24 oz Olive Garden Italian Dressing

    What size crockpot do you use? Just want to make sure mine isn’t too big for the amount of dressing called for in the recipe. Also, have you tried this in an instapot?
    Thanks! This sounds delicious.

      I haven’t tried browning the chicken beforehand, but if you do, I’d love to hear how it goes!

      You could make a slurry with cornstarch & a little water then stir it in about 30 minutes before serving. That should thicken the sauce.

      Anytime I have a recipe that does that I take the top off my crock pot and let it cook like that. It will thicken up the sauce.

      Hi Brian! I haven’t tried making this on the grill yet, but if you try it out let me know how it goes!

    Olive Garden is my fave dressing and I get the 2-pak large bottles at Costco for like $5. Lasts a long time unless you use it for recipies like this. I’m trying this recipe soon.

    I made this today and it was wonderful. I only used 2 chicken breasts since there are only 2 of us. The chicken was very tender and the flavor was super. I thickened the sauce a little and it was perfect over the chicken and mashed potatoes. Thank you for a great recipe!!

    This is so delish! I’m a little surprised. The Olive Garden Dressing makes all the difference. I used the parm cheese in the can, but topped each piece of chicken off with some shredded parm at the end. I also used thighs as I prefer them in the crockpot. I served with roasted broccoli . Good dinner.

    I am using skinless thighs for the recipe. I only have about 1/2 bottle of the dressing left. I’m thinking that might be enough. Thoughts?

      More than enough! I removed the Chicken once cooking was complete and added about 1/4t xanthan gum and whisked for about a minute. This made for a great sauce that we had on top of the chicken.
