Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet Italian dressing mix
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10.5 to 11 ounces)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth (low-sodium if preferred)
- 8 ounces angel hair pasta
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Parmesan cheese for serving
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the crock pot in a single layer.
- Whisk together the Italian dressing mix, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and chicken broth until smooth.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken, coating each breast.
- Cover and cook on low for 360 to 480 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165°F internally and is tender enough to shred.
- Cook the angel hair pasta according to package instructions. Drain, reserving a splash of pasta water to loosen the sauce if needed.
- Shred the chicken directly in the crock pot using two forks, then stir the shredded chicken into the sauce.
- Serve the creamy chicken mixture over a bed of angel hair pasta.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan and chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
For a lighter sauce, substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream. You can use frozen chicken breasts, but cooking time will be longer.
