angel chicken crockpot

Angel Chicken – Crockpot Recipe
Written by Thankfully Thrifty on July 27, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I posted a meal plan late last week without a link to one recipe. Well, here it is! Angel Chicken! Crockpot style!

Up to 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Two cans of cream of mushrooms soup (I prefer cream of chicken, and I made my own.)
Good Seasons Italian Salad Dressing Mix (Again, I made my own… an effort to eat less processed foods.)
One tub of cream cheese (I tried to make my own, but it wasn’t finished in time.)
1/2 c. butter
One cup white wine (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Angel hair pasta or rice, to serve the angel chicken goodness on top

In a heated sauce pan, mix together the cream of mushroom/chicken soup, cream cheese, butter, Good Seasons salad dressing mix, and white wine together. Let simmer a minute or two. Then pour it on top of the chicken breasts in the crockpot. Turn the crockpot on low and let it sit 3-4 hours.

Then, make your angel hair pasta or rice. Place the now cooked chicken breasts on top of the pasta and pour the remaining sauce on top. Yum!

In a crockpot, place carrots on the bottom first, then onions in a crockpot. Layer chicken on top, salt and pepper to taste and crush the rosemary over the top as well. Add cider and broth. Turn crockpot on low and cook for 8 hours.

When carrots are tender and all is cooked, drain cooking liquid into a sauce pan and simmer over medium heat till reduced.
