Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ½ cup heavy cream (or milk for a lighter option)
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened and cubed
- 1 packet Italian dressing mix (or 2 tbsp Italian seasoning)
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 12 oz angel hair pasta, cooked
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place them in the crock pot.
- Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, cream, Italian seasoning mix, Parmesan, and garlic.
- Combine and cook: Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken in the crock pot.
- Cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
- Finish: Before serving, stir the sauce to ensure it’s smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Spoon the creamy chicken and sauce over cooked angel hair pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan if desired.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with milk or half-and-half.
- Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3–4 days; reheat gently with a splash of broth.
- Italian dressing mix adds flavor; if you don’t have it, use 2 tbsp Italian seasoning.
- Cook pasta separately if you prefer a drier sauce, then toss with sauce before serving.
