Crockpot Chicken and Noodles
Crockpot Chicken and Noodles – a comforting, home cooked meal made right in your slow cooker. Creamy noodles and juicy chicken are cooked in a savory sauce for a meal the whole family will love!
Hey there, y’all. I know it’s been been awhile since my last recipe post, and I apologize for that. Even though I’ve been feeling better sickness-wise over the past couple of months, my energy level has seriously tanked.
This pregnancy has truly thrown me for a loop and I am in countdown to baby-time! I’ve got roughly seven weeks to go and could not be more ready to meet our little guy!
Something that has been helping, at least where meal times are concerned, has been my trusty crockpot.
I’ve been making a lot of our slow cooker favorites, including Cheesy Crockpot Tortellini, Cilantro Lime Chicken Tacos, and Loaded Potato Soup.
I have gotten so achey and uncomfortable over the past few weeks, and my feet and back throb by the end of the day.
Standing over the stove making dinner feels like torture on my sore body, so being able to throw everything I need to make this Crockpot Chicken and Noodles into the slow cooker at the beginning of the day has been a lifesaver.
These Crockpot Chicken and Noodles are a family favorite and I’ve been making it for awhile now.
I use the same spices in it that I do for my Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings, and it creates a deliciously savory sauce for the chicken and noodles to cook in.
My kids devour this one, and it tastes SO good as leftovers the next day, too.
We usually eat this with either a salad or some roasted veggies like broccoli or asparagus. There are never any complaints at the table when I make this!
Now, this recipe does use cream of chicken soup. While I know not everyone is crazy about cream soups these days, I actually have a brand that I really like and that doesn’t contain a lot of junk in the ingredients list.
If you’ve never tried the Organic Cream of Chicken Soup from Pacific Foods, it’s really good stuff! It has great flavor and I feel a lot better about the ingredients, too.
I like to use it in my Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings recipe, too, and also in Slow Cooker Loaded Potato Soup.

This recipe has become a weeknight staple for us. Everyone loves it. It is perfect as written and it is a lifesaver for a busy family like ours.
Made this today. I added 2x the parsley.. an extra can of cream of mushroom @ the end cause it dried out a little since it’s a brand new slow cooker. Also added some onions with chicken cooking. And when I put in the noodles (only cooked 25 minutes) I also added 1 bag of steamer mixed veggies. Had a side of cornbread. OMG! No leftovers. Kids didnt pick out veggies… and even hubby ate it. No leftovers!
I made this today and didn’t change a thing. For some reason, mine turned out more like a stew. A little soupier than I anticipated. Not sure what I did wrong.
Really?! Mine turned out with no broth left I had to pour extra in it just to cook the noodles
It was delicious though
Wow! I love how this recipe has plenty of room for variation and allows you to customize however you please….
I wanted to double this recipe but I only had enough chicken (and space in my crockpot) to 3/4th instead of x 2….
So 3 lbs chicken breast 12 oz noodles 3 cans soup 5 and 1/4 c chicken broth, 3/4 stick of butter etc….
I also added some onion powder. Serve with a side of your fave veggie and voila! Thank you for this delicious recipe!
Oh. My. Goodness. This recipe is AMAZING! My husband found it and sent it to me…he did such a great job finding it!! Love love love! Will definitely make again!
This is amazing my bf eats 3 helpings of it …lol
This was delicious! I only put the noodles in for about 18 minutes after reading reviews they were a little mushy, but other than that I followed the recipe as is! It was so good that I suggested it for the freezer meal group I’m a part of and everyone thought we should do it! It was so easy to make, and everyone really enjoyed it!
Was awesome kids m husband loved it…was all finished by the end of the night…my husband doesnt usually like noodles but i made a salad on the side with roll and asked for another plate so i was a happy chef for the night????thAnks alot
I predict zero leftovers with this dish! Delicious!
I love this recipe, great tips and everyone in the family loves it! Hard to get everyone to love one dish most of the time 🙂
My husband would love this recipe. It sounds so creamy and rich. Sounds like it would be a tasty Sunday supper to enjoy with family.
This is such an amazing comfort food recipe! I’ve made something similar, but I love using a slow cooker. Perfect for week nights!
This looks like the most perfect comfort food! And not just for a cool winter night — I could eat it all year long!
Just put everything in the crockpot! Super excited to try it out when it’s ready.
I used all the salts and all the butters. Hahha.
I just made this. It’s delicious, but you don’t need all that butter. Next time I’ll only use 2 slices, plus I used low sodium broth. Don’t need so much butter.
Made this delicious Crockpot Chicken and Noodles for dinner tonight! I followed the recipe as is, but started checking my noodles after 15 minutes. I ended up cooking them about 25 minutes and they were perfect. I’m recommending it for my freezer group next month!
Wonderful Joy! Thanks for letting me know!
Threw in triple the parsley but other than that it was solo delicious!
