  4. Jessica says:

    How long on low for thawed chicken breasts?

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Jessica ~ if using thawed chicken breasts and cooking on LOW, you’ll usually need to cook approx. 6 – 7 hours, or until done. Just keep an eye on it at the end, as every Crock Pot cooks differently. ENJOY! 🙂
