Slow Cooker Angel Chicken

Instructions

1. Layer the Chicken: Place the raw chicken breasts in a single layer at the bottom of your slow cooker.

2. Season: Sprinkle the dry Italian dressing mix evenly over the chicken.

3. Add the “Cream”: Place the blocks of cream cheese directly on top of the chicken. If using the cream of chicken soup and melted butter, whisk them together in a small bowl first and pour the mixture over the cream cheese.

4. Slow Cook: Cover and cook on Low for 6–8 hours or High for 4 hours. The cream cheese will melt into a rich sauce as it cooks.

5. Shred and Stir: Once the chicken is cooked through, use two forks to shred it directly in the pot. Stir well to incorporate the melted cream cheese and juices into a smooth, creamy sauce.

Serving Suggestions

This dish is very rich, so it’s best served over a base that can soak up the sauce:

• Angel Hair Pasta: The traditional choice for “Angel Chicken.”

• Mashed Potatoes: For a double-dose of comfort.

• Rice or Quinoa: To keep things simple.

• Side Veggie: Pair with roasted broccoli or a crisp green salad to cut through the richness.
