Description

How to make tender Crockpot Angel Chicken with chicken breast, cream cheese, and soup mix that your family will adore.

Ingredients

Scale
  • The Heart of the Dish:
  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
  • 2 (10.5 oz) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • Flavor Powerhouses:
  • 1 (0.6 oz) packet dry Italian dressing mix
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Essential Seasonings & Herbs:
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • Freshness & Garnish:
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prep Ingredients: Start by softening your cream cheese to room temperature. Pat the boneless, skinless chicken breasts dry with paper towels; this helps them absorb flavor better. Having everything ready makes the process smooth for your Crockpot Angel Chicken.
  2. Make Sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, and all dry seasonings. Whisk until mostly smooth, ensuring no large cream cheese lumps remain.
  3. Layer Crockpot: Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker. Evenly pour the rich, creamy sauce mixture over the chicken, making sure each piece is well coated. This layering sets the stage for tender Crockpot Angel Chicken.
  4. Slow Cook: Cover your crockpot and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours, or on HIGH for 2-3 hours. The chicken is done when it shreds easily with two forks. Avoid overcooking to keep the chicken moist.
  5. Shred Chicken: Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken breasts from the crockpot. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Return the shredded chicken to the creamy sauce in the crockpot and stir to combine thoroughly.
  6. Combine & Warm: Stir the shredded chicken back into the luscious sauce, ensuring every piece is coated. Let it warm on LOW for an additional 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. Your Dreamy Crockpot Angel Chicken is almost ready.
  7. Garnish & Serve: Ladle this comforting Crockpot Angel Chicken over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley just before serving. Enjoy your easy, satisfying family dinner!

Notes

Avoid overcooking chicken; cook until it shreds easily to keep it moist and tender.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

Substitute cream of mushroom or celery soup for cream of chicken for a slightly different flavor.

Serve warm over mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta, garnished with fresh parsley.

For richer flavor, quickly sear chicken breasts before slow cooking for incredible depth.
