The Creamiest Crock Pot Chicken

Submitted by KPD123

"This is one of my favorite crock pot recipes. The sauce is rich and creamy, almost like an alfredo. It is perfect over pasta or even rice. Be sure to make extra bread sticks to dunk in this delicious sauce! I prefer a richer sauce, so I use cream cheese instead of sour cream. I like to dice up the chicken into bite-sized pieces, but it's good either way. Enjoy!"

This turned out great with my modifications. I used only half a pkg onion soup mix. If I had of used the whole thing it would have been WAY too salty for our taste. I used cream of mushroom soup, and 1/2 pkg cream cheese which seemed to work out well. Over all it was really yummy over egg noodles and very easy to prepare. I cooked for only 4 hours on low and the chicken was cooked perfectly. Any longer I think the chicken would have dried out. I'd make this again.. thanks for posting!

This recipe was edible, but I was disappointed. After reading the reviews I had very high expectations, but I found this dish to be to salty and it had way too much onion flavor. Instead of saving the leftovers we threw them away, which never happens in this house. I might make this again and follow some of the other suggestions, but probably not.

This was delicious! I only used two boneless breasts, but left everything else the same so I'd have lots of sauce for my rice. The chicken was done in just 4 hours on low, and I used sour cream. I'll try the cream cheese next time - and with this recipe there will be many next times for me!

How easy and yummy! We're getting ready to paint the whole downstairs, so I thought it would be good to have something ready for the next couple of days. There's not much left, I'll have to make more! I used the Campbell's Healthy Request Cream of Chicken and Cream of Mushroom soups, plus 1/4 cup of really good Chardonnay. But when I saw the sodium content of the Onion Soup packet, I opted for another way. I had some Light Alouette herb and garlic cheese and some fat-free cream cheese in the fridge, and used about 1/4 cup of each, after cooking the rest on low for about 2 1/2 hours. I let the crockpot sizzle after adding the cheeses, coverless, to reduce a bit, an hour or so. Then I cooked up some cracked pepper fettucini, about 8 oz, added to the pot, let go a few minutes and Voila! Fabulous meal, served with salad. I will make this again and again, interchangeing soups. Next time I'll try Cream of Asparagus soup and add some asparagus tips. Thanks KPD, this is a real keeper!

I loved this chicken! I used one can mushroom and one can chicken soup. I used the sour cream instead of cream cheese. I served the sauce over rice. I'll be making this again! Thanks for sharing this delicious chicken!!
