Ingredients
Steps
Spray the inside of the slow cooker with nonstick spray or use a slow cooker liner.
Place 3-4 thawed boneless, skinless chicken breasts (trimmed of excess fat) in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Pour 2 cups of Olive Garden Italian dressing over the chicken.
Sprinkle ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese on top, then season with black pepper.
Tear one block of cream cheese into pieces and place around or on top of the chicken.
Cover with the lid and cook on low for 5-6 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fork-tender.
Shred the chicken using two forks, then mix well to combine with the dressing and melted cream cheese.
Serve over cooked pasta or stir the pasta directly into the slow cooker before serving.
Notes
If the sauce is too tart, you can add more cream cheese or a splash of heavy cream to balance the flavors. For extra color and flavor, consider adding a bag of baby spinach or drained sun-dried tomatoes after shredding the chicken. To avoid excess oil, ensure chicken is well-trimmed and whisk the sauce thoroughly before serving.
