Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 10.5 ounces Cream of chicken soup
- 1 packet Italian dressing mix (dry packet)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 12 ounces Fettuccine pasta
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease it with oil to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, cream of chicken soup, and dry Italian dressing mix. Use a whisk or fork to mix until smooth. Add the garlic powder and chicken broth, and stir until well combined.
Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chicken in the crock pot, ensuring the chicken is fully coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid, set it to low heat, and cook for 4-6 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
About 15 minutes before the chicken is ready, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove it from the crock pot and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken back to the crock pot and stir into the sauce.
Add the cooked and drained fettuccine to the crock pot. Gently toss the pasta to coat evenly in the sauce with the shredded chicken.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the pasta and sauce mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Serve the Crock Pot Italian Chicken and Fettuccine warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Pair with a side salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
