Joe loves a good cheese steak but I’ve never actually tried to make one. The other day while we were out to lunch and Joe was eating a Chicken Cheese Steak he suggested that we might be able to make chicken cheese steaks in the slow cooker. I accepted his challenge and set out to create an easy recipe.
I used on-the-bone chicken thighs but you could probably use any cut of chicken. I liked the darker meat because it holds in the moisture a little better than white meat but I might try boneless chicken breasts next time.
Joe approved of my slow cooker recipe and so did the boys! I served sweet potato fries with our cheese steaks, not a very healthy meal but a delicious one!
