Here’s the best classic version 👇
🍗 Crockpot Angel Chicken
Ingredients
-
4–6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
-
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
-
1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom)
-
½ cup chicken broth
-
1 packet (0.7 oz) Italian dressing mix (like Good Seasons)
-
¼ cup dry white wine (optional — or use more broth)
-
1 tbsp butter (optional, for richness)
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
12 oz angel hair pasta, cooked for serving
-
Fresh parsley or Parmesan, for garnish
🕐 Instructions
-
Prepare the sauce:
In a bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, cream of chicken soup, broth, Italian dressing mix, and wine until smooth. (If it’s thick, warm it slightly in the microwave to blend easily.) -
Add chicken:
Place chicken breasts in the crockpot. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Pour the sauce mixture over the top. -
Cook:
Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours (or HIGH for 2–3 hours), until chicken is tender and cooked through. -
Finish & serve:
-
Shred or slice the chicken directly in the slow cooker and stir to coat in sauce.
-
Serve over cooked angel hair pasta.
-
Garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
-
💡 Tips
-
Use thighs for extra tender results — they don’t dry out.
-
Add a handful of sliced mushrooms or spinach in the last hour for a veggie boost.
-
If the sauce feels too thick, stir in a splash of milk or extra broth before serving.
