Next, add the marinara sauce, garlic powder, onion granules, Italian seasoning mix, paprika, red chili flakes and chicken broth. Make sure the chicken is completely submerged in liquid.

Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 30 minutes until the tortellini are tender.

Step 8

Stir in the spinach and continue to cook for another 10 minutes.
