Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 3 cups cooked rice or egg noodles (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of a crock pot.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream cheese, chicken broth, minced garlic, dried parsley, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken breasts in the crock pot, ensuring each piece is well coated.
Add two tablespoons of butter to the crock pot for added richness.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
About 30 minutes before cooking time is up, add the frozen peas and carrots to the crock pot. Stir gently to combine and allow them to heat through.
Once done, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crock pot, mixing it with the sauce.
Serve the creamy chicken mixture over cooked rice or egg noodles for a hearty meal. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
