Crock pot creamy Italian chicken
Crock pot Italian chicken is one of my all time favorite meals! My Aunt gave this recipe to me when I was first married, and we have been making it ever since. It is SOO delicious and super easy to make.
I’m sure many of you have tried this recipe, but if not it’s one of those super easy “forget and go” meals! In the summer I find myself using the crock pot more and more so I don’t have to heat up my oven! I put my crock pot in the garage so it doesn’t heat up the whole house.
Creamy Italian Chicken
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 8 oz cream cheese (1 pkg)
- 1 packet Good Seasons Italian dressing
- 4 chicken breasts (I use frozen)
Directions:
Place chicken in the crock pot and pour water over the top. Sprinkle the Italian seasonings over the chicken. Next add the creamy of chicken soup and cut the cream cheese into cubes and place in the crock pot.
Cook on low for 5-6 hours or high for 3-4 hours. Shred chicken and serve over bow tie pasta.

Yummy! I made that once before but whoever I got the recipe from said to serve it w/ rice. It was just so-so..I think it would be WAY better w/ pasta ;)Need to make that one again!

Hi, found you through Bluecricketdesign.net
I made this recipe last night, and it was delish!! Although I went with some pork loin chops instead of chicken breast (I don't care for ckn breast in the crock pot and I didn't have any thighs on hand so I used what I had)
I had it with rice and broccoli and it will definitely be a go-to for many dinners to come!!
Thank you!!
Jilian
i make this all the time, love it!!! i normally add cut up potatoes, onions, peppers and carrots and just eat it as is not over anything. tonight i didnt have onions, or peppers so i tossed in some carrots and thought about doing it over noodles.
love your site!
Oh yum that’s a great idea! I need to try that next time. Thanks for sharing! :)
Just double checking….4 blocks of cream cheese?
Just one block, one 8 oz package. :)
I love the simplicity of this slow cooked creamy chicken. For future reference do you put the chicken breast in the crock pot frozen? What kind of chicken do you use?
Yes, I always put mine in frozen. I usually get fresh chicken from Costco and freeze it, but any chicken will work. :)
Oh yeah, what sides do you use?
I like to serve this with green beans or broccoli! :)
Great recipes
WOW! I just made this for my family tonight and everyone – even my super picky son – loved it and wants me to make it OFTEN! I was able to find organic versions of every ingredient so I didn’t feel too badly about the richness of the dish. Plus, I don’t think you can find a simpler meal to make!!! This will be a MUST MAKE for our snow days this year (we are praying we have lots of them too!). Thanks for the great recipe!
This recipe is perfect for snow days! I’m so glad your family loved this recipe, I love how easy and delicious it is. Thanks for your comment Chrissy! :)
I am so sorry about my autocorrect, let’s try this again.
First, what ounce can of soup do you use?
Second, are your frozen chicken breasts pre cooked or raw? I feel as if using raw frozen chicken is unsafe, even with 8 hours of cooktime.
Third, how many ounces are in a packet of seasoning?
Hi Liz! The cream of chicken soup is the 10.75 oz can. I use raw frozen chicken breasts but you can definitely use fresh chicken breasts instead, just decrease the cooking time. The packet of seasoning is a .7 oz. Hope that helps! :)
This sounds so good and easy! If you use frozen chicken, do you still add the water? If so, is it runny when it’s finished cooking? Thanks!
Hi Cyndey! Yes I do still add water. The consistency is about the same both ways. :)
How many does this feed?
Hi Rachel! This should feed 5-6 people! :)
It says low for 5-6 hours, but I won’t be home to eat until 8 hours. If using frozen chicken, would 8 hours on low be ok?
I used frozen and it only needed 5-6 hours. I’d had maybe a quarter cup more fluid (water or chicken stock) and let it go for eight!
Can you just use raw chicken and if so do you still add in the water? Thanks so much.
Yes! You can use this with raw chicken and yes, you’ll still want to add the water. Thanks, Tammy! :)
