Interesting Crock Pot Chicken

"So simple, and so good! Add a veggie or salad and dinner's done! I like to serve this over rice, but it is equally as tasty over cooked egg noodles. I also add extra 'shrooms cause we LOVE them!"

  1. Wow! THANK YOU, Manda!! Spectacular dish and so wonderfully crockpot easy. I have to admit I was skeptical about the high setting, but the chix was plenty moist and of course, delightfully tender. Only small changes I made were to increase to 16oz mushrooms (more would certainly not hurt!), only 1 can of soup, and lowfat cream cheese. During the last hour I also thickened it with a couple of Tbls. of corn starch diluted with equal water and added a couple of Tbls. of sherry cooking wine. It smelled SO good I didn't even take time to make a salad...DH and I just had it over brown rice. Yum, yum!!
     
  2. I cut the chicken breasts in half and only used 1 envelope of the ranch dressing mix, 1 can soup, and 4 oz cream cheese. It was very creamy and had a great flavor. Served this with boiled red potatoes and a side of steamed broccoli. Thanks Manda! I will make this again.
     
  3. Oh Baby! This was more than interesting, it was terrrrrific! I made this for DH's supper last night. We had it over brown rice. I used a reduced-fat cream of mushroom soup and it was still a great recipe. It was pretty saucy, so plan on that. We'll definitely make this one again. Thanks for posting it.
     
  4. This is another crockpot winner. The chicken comes out so moist. The sauce is so rich and creamy. I served this over noodles and just added a small amount of pepper. I love not having to heat up the kitchen in order to serve a good home-cooked meal. Thanks for a great recipe.
     
  5. Finally made this, and one taste I knew I should have made it sooner! The chicken breasts stayed nice and moist and the sauce was awesome. I served this on a bed of spinach fettucinie and rounded out the meal with spinach sauteedd in garlic and olive oil with a dash of red pepper. Manda keep posting recipes like this and I'll keep coming back for more!

  1. This was rather tasty! Cut recipe in half. I only had ranch dip mix...so used that. Didn't add mushrooms...hubby doesn't like. Used boullion instead of broth and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder instead of garlic. It is alittle "rich" for me but was good. Will make again someday.
     
  2. This was great! I didn't have mushrooms which is ok because my dh doesn't like them. I also only had cream of chicken soup instead of mushroom and added some dill. It was great! Thank you.
     
  3. I was some what disappointed with all the fantastic reviews. My cream cheese didn't melt the last hour I cooked it and it didn't seem to have that kick I was looking for in taste. I will try it again but next time add 1 cup of white wine instead of the chicken broth. The sauce wasn't thick at all and I tried to thicken it with cornstarch and water but didn't want to keep adding more because of changing the taste of the sauce. Also, I will add the soup and cream cheese in the beginning to see what happens. Thanks for posting.

I am a single gal, living on my own; currently working as an Occupational Therapist & living in Cumberland, MD. (It is "God's Country" out here...beautiful!) I LOVE to cook and bake, and love anything that looks, tastes, smells, or even closely resembles a veggie. I LOVE moo-cows, and therefore, cannot bring myself to eat any part of the adorable critters (i.e. NO RED MEAT!!) I love the outdoors, and pride myself on being the master griller on the fire pit. My mother's side of the family is 100% Polish, so I have an inborn passion for cooking...unfortunately, along with that comes a love of eating, too!! But, hey..u only live once, so I say "EAT, DRINK, and BE MERRY!!!"
