Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 10.5 oz can Cream of chicken soup
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot in a single layer.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and chicken broth. Mix until smooth.
Pour the mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly covered.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 hours.
Thirty minutes before cooking time ends, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the chicken and sauce. Replace the lid and allow the cheese to melt.
Once done, use a fork to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces, or serve the breasts whole with the cheesy sauce poured over them.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot over rice, pasta, or with a side of steamed vegetables.
