This is seriously my husband's favorite meal. He has me fix this for his birthday or any other special day when I ask him what he would like. The best part is, it's so easy to make, I don't mind if he wants me to make it all the time! It's easy to throw together and it tastes great. How can you lose?
Cream Cheese Chicken:
- 2 lbs of raw chicken breasts - I prefer tenderloins, but just breasts work fine too
- 1 pack of Italian Dressing Seasoning mix
- 1 stick of butter
- 1 can of cream of chicken soup
- 1 brick of cream cheese
1. Turn your slow cooker on high and add the stick of butter. Heat until melted. When butter is melted, add the Italian dressing mix packet and mix well.
2. Chop up chicken into bite sized cubes. Add chicken to butter and seasoning mixture and stir until all the chicken is coated. Put the lid on the slow cooker and cook on high for 2 hours.
3. After the chicken is cooked, add can of cream of chicken soup and cream cheese brick (I like to chop up the brick so it melts easier). Cover again and heat until the cream cheese is melted. Stir everything until mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. It's done :) And it should look like this:
Serve over noodles (I like it with egg noodles), rice, or potatoes - really anything is great with this on top :)
Mmmm.... delicious :) This also freezes wonderfully. Just let it cool completely after cooking it, put into a large freezer bag (squeeze out all the air). Lay the bag flat in the bottom of your freezer until frozen stiff. IT will keep for up to 6 months in the freezer. To serve, just pull it out in the morning and it will be thawed by the time you want to eat it :)
