Crockpot Angel Chicken

Print Recipe
This Crockpot Angel Chicken recipe is a family favorite. Tender chicken breasts are slow cooked in a creamy sauce that tastes delicious served over a bed of angel hair pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes. This is such an easy meal to put together and is always a crowd pleaser!

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 ounce packet dry Italian dressing mix
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3-4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • cooked angel hair pasta for serving

Instructions

  • Spray the inside of your crockpot with non-stick cooking spray. Add the softened cream cheese, butter, cream of chicken soup, Italian dressing mix, chicken stock, and minced garlic into your slow cooker and mix until well combined.
  • Add boneless skinless chicken breasts to the crockpot and spoon some of the cream sauce over the chicken.
  • Place the lid on top and cook for 3-4 hours on high heat or for 5-6 hours on low heat.
  • Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-size pieces and mix with the sauce. Serve over cooked angel hair pasta.

Notes

  • Chicken breasts or chicken thighs will both work great in this recipe and I use either one depending on what I have on hand or what’s available.
  • Feel free to use fresh or frozen chicken. If using frozen chicken, you may need to add an additional 1-2 hours to your cooking time.
  • Italian dressing mix comes in a packet and can usually be found in the salad dressing aisle next to the dry ranch dressing mix. The brand I buy is Good Seasons. Make sure you use this and NOT Italian seasoning-the spice!
  • Add some veggies. This is an easy recipe to add some veggies to, like canned or fresh mushrooms, frozen peas, or chopped broccoli.
  • Store leftover chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
