Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast patted dry
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 medium bell pepper (any color) diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 15 oz can diced tomatoes (partially drained) I like the variety that has basil, garlic, and oregano
  • 10 oz can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 10 oz can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 8 oz dried spaghetti
  • 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Prepare

  • Add chicken breasts to the insert of a slow cooker.

Make veggie sauce

  • In a mixing bowl, add the onion, bell pepper, garlic, diced tomatoes, cream of mushroom, cream of chicken, dried oregano, dried basil, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir together to combine well.

Cook

  • Add veggie sauce to the slow cooker, covering the chicken breasts.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours. I haven't tested this recipe on HIGH, so I can't say how well it will turn out.

Shred chicken

  • About 30-40 minutes before you'd like to serve, remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and shred. I like to use two forks to do this, but you can shred it however you'd like.
  • Return shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir.

Boil pasta

  • About 20-30 minutes before serving, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, then cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and add to the slow cooker.

Add cream and cheese

  • Pour in the heavy whipping cream and shredded cheese. Stir everything together, then add the cover to the slow cooker and let it sit for about 5 minutes, to warm the cream through and melt the cheese.

Garnish and serve

  • Remove cover, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

Notes

  1. I've estimated this recipe serves 6, however you're free to divide it up into as many servings as you'd like.
