Crockpot Creamy Italian Chicken and noodles

Creamy Crockpot Italian Chicken

Creamy Crockpot Italian Chicken is a hearty and delicious meal that the whole family will love. The secret is the Italian Seasoning that gives this yummy chicken all its flavor.

The best part of this creamy crock pot chicken pasta recipe is it's an easy and quick dinner for any busy night! You only need 5 ingredients for the whole recipe. I usually keep a can of cream of chicken in the pantry and when I can't think of anything to make this is my go-to recipe.

The chicken goes great with pasta, mashed potatoes, and rice. You could even eat it on its own! Another great 5 ingredient dinner that has easy prep is my Crock Pot Garlic Butter Chicken.

Easy Crock Pot Dinner

My favorite way to eat this Creamy Italian Chicken is with a big bowl of pasta! I mean it is Italian and what goes better with Italian food than pasta. The crockpot chicken with cream cheese sauce coats the pasta to combine it all into creamy dream dinner! All your favorite Italian spices are included in the Italian Dressing Mix packet so it makes it so simple to make the recipe for a busy weeknight.

All you have to do is cook the pasta right before you eat and pour the pasta in. Give everything a good stir and you just doubled your food. It's a great way to serve a big family or crowd. Add a simple salad and a loaf of bread and this meal is a feast fit for a king.

How to Make Creamy Italian Slow Cooker Chicken

Step 1. Place chicken in the slow cooker.

Step 2. Mix Cream Cheese and Cream of Chicken Soup together in a separate bowl.

Step 3. Add Seasoning packet to cream cheese mixture. Stir to combine.

Step 4. Pour cream cheese mixture over chicken.

Step 5. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours.

Step 6. Shred or cut the chicken into pieces and stir back into the sauce. Serve over cooked pasta or rice.

tips &

Keep the chicken breasts whole. I have found that when you dice the chicken before cooking it dries out quicker. Cut the chicken into cubes if you prefer once it is finished cooking.

Food Allergies

All of the ingredients in this recipe are gluten-free. We don't have anyone in the house with gluten allergies, but still sometimes like to keep it gluten-free.

My favorite is this Crock Pot 7 quart Programmable Slow Cooker. First and foremost, I love being able to set the timer in case I'm not home when the food is finished cooking and it just switches to warm. Plus you can lock the lid and just carry it to a party. Not only is it easy to carry but also you will never lose another Tupperware or serving dish again at a potluck party!

    Will this work in a 4 quart crock pot?

      Hi Skeet! That should fit in a 4 quart just fine. There isn't too much liquid so it shouldn't be over-filled. Hope you enjoy it!

    Before I make this.....are you supposed to shred the chicken? I don't see that instruction anywhere

      HI Cindy! I like to shred the chicken so you get bites with the pasta but it's up to you.

    Can I use the liquid olive garden Italian dressing if I don't have a packet?

    • Allison Treadwell says

      January 24, 2023 at 9:32 am

      Hi Brooklyn! I think that might make too much liquid. Can you just make your own packet? These are the measurements- 1/4 cup dried basil
      2 tablespoons dried thyme
      2 tablespoons dried marjoram
      2 tablespoons dried rosemary
      2 tablespoons dried oregano
      2 teaspoons garlic powder
      2 tablespoons dried coriander
      1 teaspoon sugar

    Can I put UNCOOKED pasta in WITH Chicken and other ingredients at the start?

      February 14, 2023 at 10:27 am

      Hi Vicki! The pasta will turn out mushy and gummy if you add it in the beginning. It's just too long for it too cook for.

      Hi Ashlyn! I would only cook the chicken for 1- 1 1/2 so the chicken doesn't dry out. Enjoy!
