Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 packet Dry Italian salad dressing mix
- 10.5 ounces Cream of mushroom soup
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 12 ounces Angel hair pasta (or pasta of choice)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot in a single layer.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Once the butter is melted, stir in the dry Italian dressing mix, cream of mushroom soup, cream cheese, and chicken broth. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat.
Pour the creamy mixture over the chicken breasts in the crock pot, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 5-6 hours or on HIGH for 2-3 hours. The chicken should be tender and easy to shred with a fork.
When the chicken is almost ready, cook the angel hair pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Optional: Shred the chicken in the crock pot for a more evenly coated dish, or leave the chicken breasts whole if preferred.
Serve the chicken and creamy sauce over a bed of angel hair pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Enjoy your Crock Pot Angel Chicken with a side of steamed vegetables or garlic bread for a complete meal.
