To a 5-6 quart slow cooker, add 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 2 cups Alfredo sauce, 1 cup chicken broth, 2 cloves garlic, minced, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Gently stir to make sure the chicken is coated with the sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 3–4 hours. The chicken should be cooked through (165F degree internal temperature) and can easily shred.
Remove the chicken, shred it with two forks or cut it up with a knife, and return it to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
To the crock pot add 20-25 ounce bag frozen cheese ravioli (do not thaw) and gently press it down into the sauce (it needs to be thoroughly coated in the sauce to cook evenly.) You can gently stir it together to make sure it is all coated in sauce.
Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
Cover and cook on low for about 30–40 more minutes, until the ravioli is tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Do not overcook or the ravioli will turn mushy.
NOTE: Different slow cookers can cook at different speeds. Please go by doneness, NOT just by time.
Top with chopped fresh parsley or basil (optional) then serve!

Please refer to my FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions) and ingredient list above for other substitutions or for the answers to the most common questions.
The weight of the chicken doesn't have to be exact. If you only have one pound of chicken, this will still work. The same goes for the ravioli, a 20-25 ounce bag will work. Ravioli seems to come in a few different size bags so as long as you're within that range, it will work with this recipe. Just don't go above 25 ounces or it will be too much.
If you are at all concerned that a recipe might be too salty or you need to cut back on sodium, please use low or no sodium options where possible. You can always add salt in but you can't take it out once it is in there.
This can be finished in 3-4 hours depending on your Crock Pot.
