10.5 oz cream of chicken soup

¼ cup butter, softened
0.6 oz Italian dressing mix (dry packet)
1 lb angel hair pasta
Optional: Sliced mushrooms, freshly grated Parmesan cheese
👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Slow Cooker
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray or use a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Arrange the Chicken
Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts and garlic cloves into the slow cooker.
Step 3: Make the Sauce
In a microwave-safe bowl, soften the butter and cream cheese (do not melt).
Whisk together until smooth.
Stir in the cream of chicken soup (undiluted), Italian dressing mix, and chicken stock.
Whisk until the mixture is well combined.
Step 4: Slow Cook to Perfection
Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours (or until the chicken is tender and easily shredded).
Step 5: Shred and Finish Cooking
Optional: 30 minutes before cooking time is finished, shred the chicken using two forks and let it soak in the sauce for extra flavor.
Step 6: Cook the Pasta
Just before the chicken is done, cook the angel hair pasta according to package instructions.
Drain well.
Step 7: Serve & Enjoy
Serve the creamy angel chicken over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
Garnish with fresh Parmesan cheese or chopped parsley (optional).
