Angel Chicken

This is a wonderful slow cooker recipe. I understand it is call Angel Chicken because of it's heavenly mushroom sauce. The chicken is fork tender. Mmmm. Comfort food!! My family loves this recipe... and so do I, because it is an easy weeknight meal for a mom that works outside the home.

• Ready In: 4 hrs 10 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 2 (8 ounce) packages fresh mushrooms, quartered
• 4  boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 1-1 1/2 lbs)
• 1⁄4 cup butter
• 1 (2/3ounce) package  italian dry  salad dressing mix
• 1 (10 3/4ounce) can  condensed golden mushroom soup
• 1⁄2 cup chicken broth
• 0.5 (8 ounce) container  cream cheese spread with chives and onions
•  hot cooked rice
•  cornstarch

Directions

1. Put mushrooms in a 4 quart slow cooker; top with chicken breast. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan; stir in the italian dressing mix, golden mushroom soup, chicken broth and cream cheese until melted.
2. Pour this over the mushrooms and chicken.
3. Cover and cook on high heat for 4 1/2 hours, or on low heat for 8 hours.
4. If the sauce is a little too thin, I mix about a tbs. or two of cornstarch in a 1/4 cup of water until it dissolves. Then I add this to the crockpot and let the sauce simmer for a few minutes, until the sauce is thickened a bit.
5. Serve chicken and sauce over cooked rice or pasta.
6. Enjoy!
