2poundsboneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1packetdry Italian dressing mix0.7–1 ounce
1cancream of chicken soup10.5 ounces
1packagecream cheese8 oz, softened and cubed
1/2cupchicken broth or water
Instructions
Place the chicken in the bottom of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker in an even layer.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry Italian dressing mix, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth or water until fairly smooth.
Scatter the cream cheese cubes over the chicken, then pour the soup mixture evenly over the top.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4–6 hours, or on HIGH for about 2–3 hours, until the chicken is very tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Using two forks, shred or chunk the chicken right in the slow cooker and stir well to blend it with the creamy sauce. Cover and let it sit on WARM for 5–10 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve hot over cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
Notes
Optional add-ins include sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
