Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 pounds chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 1 (10-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
  • 1 (0.7-ounce) envelope Italian dressing mix
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • rice for serving, cooked, mashed potatoes
  • pasta
  • potatoes

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to slow cooker. There is no need to stir or anything. Place lid on top. Cook on LOW for 4-6 hours or on HIGH for 2-3 hours.
  2. Remove lid and shred the chicken. Stir everything together until the cream cheese is combined into the sauce. Serve over cooked rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • Instant Pot Instructions: Increase the chicken broth to 1 full cup, then combine everything in the Instant Pot, seal the lid, and cook on high pressure for 14 minutes for fresh chicken, or 18 minutes if using frozen chicken breasts. Do a natural pressure release for 10 minutes before venting any remaining pressure, then remove the lid, shred the chicken and stir.
  • Sun-dried Tomato Basil: Add in chopped sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil in the last 30 minutes for a Tuscan flavor similar to one of our favorites, Marry Me Chicken.
  • Spinach Artichoke: Stir in chopped spinach, diced roasted red peppers, and drained artichoke hearts for more veggies and a different flavor profile.
  • Pesto: Try mixing in 1/4 cup of your favorite pesto sauce then tossing everything with some cooked pasta.
  • Cajun: Go Cajun by swapping out the Italian seasoning packet with 2-3 Tablespoons of your favorite Cajun seasoning.
  • Mexican: Make it Mexican by using taco seasoning in place of the Italian dressing mix and adding frozen corn & black beans. Serve over Mexican rice topped with some chopped fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
  • Parmesan Garlic: Mix in 1/2 cup to 1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and 3-4 minced garlic cloves for more of a cheesy, garlicky flavor.
