Creamy Italian Crock-Pot Chicken

I'm always on the look out for new dinner ideas for my picky family!

I knew when I saw this recipe from two of my favorite ladies, it was SURE to be hit!

I first saw the recipe in Amy's Weekly Meal Plan - if you haven't seen Amy's meal plans, you don't know what you're missing.

She not only has an amazing collection of recipes, but she creates a printable PDF file with all of the recipes, photos and even a grocery list. Just print the file and you’re ready to go shopping!! Best of all, it’s FREE!

You can even submit your own weekly meal plan and be the main feature that week on Living Locurto.- Amy has featured several of my recipes

Well, this recipe was submitted by Angie of The Arthur Clan and Amy's I Heart Faces "partner in crime"

Angie says all of her kids love this! Well, the night I made it, Sunshine had 2 friends over for dinner and it was a HUGE hit with everyone!!.....the girls all had seconds!!

Creamy Italian CrockPot Chicken

CREAMY ITALIAN CROCK-POT CHICKEN
*my notes in red

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 envelope Italian salad dressing
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • (optional) 1 can (4 oz.) mushroom stems and pieces (drained)
  • hot cooked noodles or rice

Directions

  1. Cut the chicken into medium sized chunks and place in slow cooker. *I just used chicken tenderloins and I did not cut them up.
  2. Combine salad dressing mix and water – pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours.
  3. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and soup until blended.
  4. If you like mushrooms – Stir them into mix now. *I did not use mushrooms
  5. Pour mix over chicken.
  6. Cook 1 hour longer or until juices run clear. *I misread the directions and added cheese and soup at the beginning and slow cooked it all for about 4-5 hours.- all turned out fine.
  7. Serve over rice or noodles. I added the cheesy sauce to the noodles and served the chicken on the side.

Thanks for the tip - a pdf file w/ a grocery list? That's fabulous! Too often I forget about the crock pot as an option but with our crazy spring schedule I need to be utilizing it better - especially for yummy recipes like this one.
