Creamy Chicken with Noodles

This crockpot chicken pasta "sauce" is the best comfort meal ever!

I have made this recipe more times than I can count and it never ceases to amaze me. Somehow it turns out almost like an alfredo, but somehow more delicious. It's buttery and the seasoning of the dressing mix is just everything with the cream cheese. It's total comfort food.

Update 10/11/2017: I have once again made my favorite crockpot chicken pasta recipe and this go-around I decided it was missing something and that thing was roasted grape tomatoes. I simply tossed them in olive oil and seasoned them with salt and pepper. Then I roasted them for about 10 minutes at 425 degrees until they started to burst. I topped individual servings with tomatoes (because Matthew isn't a fan, so I leave them out for him). It was exactly what this recipe needed and I am so happy I tried that.

What you need:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or 1 pkg. chicken tenderloins
• 1 pkg. Italian dressing mix
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1 pkg (8 oz.) cream cheese
• 1/2 cup boiling water with chicken bouillon
• 2 tbsp. melted butter
• Pasta of your choice, cooked al dente

Directions:

1. First, pour boiling water into crockpot. Add chicken.
2. Drizzle butter over chicken and add dressing. Do NOT mix.
3. Cook on low for 5 to 6 hours.
4. 45 minutes before done, place cream cheese and cream of chicken soup in microwave and mix until smooth. Pour mixture on top of chicken. Again, do not mix. 
5. Cook for 45 minutes more, then mix together. Shred chicken as you mix.
6. Serve over cooked pasta.
