Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Sauce
- 1 1/2 – 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of chicken soup (no water added)
- 1-2 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
- 1/4 tsp poultry seasoning
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 stick butter, sliced
- 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
Noodles
- 8 oz. egg noodles, uncooked
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken and base: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot. Top the chicken evenly with the two cans of cream of chicken soup without adding any water.
- Add seasoning and broth: Sprinkle the dried parsley, seasoned salt, poultry seasoning, and garlic powder over the soup-covered chicken. Add the sliced butter on top, then pour in 3 1/2 cups of chicken broth evenly over everything.
- Slow cook the chicken: Cover and cook on low heat for 5-6 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, allowing the chicken to cook thoroughly and absorb the flavors of the creamy sauce.
- Shred the chicken: Remove the cooked chicken breasts from the crockpot and shred them into large chunks using two forks.
- Add noodles and combine: Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot, add the dry egg noodles, and stir to combine everything well.
- Cook noodles until tender: Continue cooking the mixture on low heat for another 30-45 minutes, or until the egg noodles are fully cooked and tender.
- Serve and enjoy: Once the noodles are tender and the dish is heated through, serve warm and enjoy this creamy, comforting meal.
