- Place the wrapped chicken in the slow cooker

- Turn on the slow cooker and cook for 3 hours on High/Medium OR 6 hours on Low
- When the chicken is cooked, remove them from the slow cooker and place them in an oven proof dish.
- Check the consistency of the sauce. If it needs thickening slightly turn up the heat on the slow cooker and allow it to simmer, with the lid off for a couple of minutes
- Pour the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle each one with 20g/¼ cup of grated cheese, then place under a pre heated grill until the cheese starts to brown
