Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crock Pot Angel Chicken
  1. Start by trimming any excess fat from the boneless skinless chicken breasts. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Place in a single layer at the bottom of the crock pot.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, softened cream cheese, Italian dressing mix, melted butter, and chicken broth. Blend until mostly smooth.
  3. Pour the sauce over the chicken breasts in the crock pot, ensuring they are entirely covered.
  4. Cover and set the crock pot to LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2.5–3 hours until the chicken is fork-tender at 165°F.
  5. Once cooking is complete, stir the sauce to ensure a consistent, creamy texture.
  6. Cook the pasta or egg noodles according to package instructions, then serve the chicken and sauce over the pasta.

Notes

Use thawed chicken for even cooking; stir the sauce before serving to maintain a silky texture. Add veggies during the last hour for added nutrition, and be mindful of cooking times to avoid drying out the chicken.
