Description

Crockpot Angel Chicken is a creamy, flavorful dish featuring tender boneless chicken breasts cooked slowly in a rich sauce made with Italian dressing mix, golden mushroom soup, and cream cheese. Served over delicate angel hair pasta, this easy-to-make comfort food recipe is perfect for a family dinner with minimal prep and plenty of comforting flavors.

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 packet Italian dressing mix (about 1 ounce)
  • 1 can (10.75 ounces) condensed golden mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 4 ounces cream cheese

Pasta

  • 1 pound angel hair pasta

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot, spreading them out evenly for even cooking.
  2. Make the Sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the Italian dressing mix, condensed golden mushroom soup, chicken broth, and cream cheese. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully combined into a creamy sauce.
  3. Combine and Cook: Pour the prepared creamy sauce evenly over the chicken breasts in the crockpot. Cover the crockpot with the lid securely in place.
  4. Slow Cook: Cook on the low setting for 4 to 5 hours, or until the chicken breasts are completely cooked through and tender enough to shred easily with a fork.
  5. Cook Pasta: While the chicken is finishing, prepare the angel hair pasta according to the package instructions, typically boiling in salted water until al dente. Once cooked, drain the pasta thoroughly.
  6. Serve: Plate the cooked angel hair pasta and spoon the tender chicken breasts and creamy sauce over the top. Serve immediately to enjoy a comforting, hearty meal.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, stir in a bit more cream cheese or reduce the chicken broth slightly.
  • You can substitute the angel hair pasta with fettuccine or linguine if preferred.
  • Adding some fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving can enhance flavor and presentation.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Make sure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure safety.
