Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Sauce
- 1 1/2-2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of chicken soup (no water added)
- 1-2 tsp dried parsley
- ½ tsp seasoned salt
- ¼ tsp poultry seasoning
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ½ stick butter, sliced
- 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
Noodles
- 8 oz egg noodles, uncooked
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot. Top the chicken with the two cans of cream of chicken soup without adding any water, ensuring an evenly spread layer.
- Season the Dish: Sprinkle the dried parsley, seasoned salt, poultry seasoning, and garlic powder evenly over the soups and chicken. Add the sliced butter pieces on top to add richness and flavor.
- Add Broth: Pour the 3 ½ cups of chicken broth over the mixture, allowing liquid to surround the chicken and soup, which will help in slow cooking and creating the sauce.
- Cook Chicken: Cover and cook the mixture on low heat for 5-6 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- Shred Chicken: Remove the chicken breasts from the crockpot and shred them into large chunks using two forks. This will help distribute the chicken evenly throughout the noodles later.
- Add Noodles and Chicken Back: Return the shredded chicken into the crockpot. Add the uncooked egg noodles and stir everything together to combine well with the sauce.
- Cook Noodles: Continue cooking the mixture for an additional 30-45 minutes until the egg noodles are tender and have absorbed flavors from the sauce.
- Serve: Once the noodles are cooked through, give the dish a final stir and serve hot, enjoying a creamy and hearty chicken and noodle casserole made with minimal effort.
