Description

Coming home to a warm and creamy pasta bowl is incredibly comforting, especially when it has been cooking itself while you went on with your day. This crockpot chicken spaghetti is a cheesy, easy-to-make dish with tender chicken, rich sauce, and perfectly cooked noodles.

Ingredients

Scale

1 and 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
1 14 ounce can petite diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano (not drained)
1 22.6 ounce can cream of chicken soup
1 and 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasonings
1/4–1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 ounces cream cheese
1 cup grated mozzarella
1 cup grated Monterey jack cheese
1 16 ounce box spaghetti

Instructions

Step: Add the chicken breast, canned tomatoes, cream of chicken soup and spices to the bottom of a 6 quart crockpot. Cook on low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours.
Step: Once the chicken is cooked through, use forks to shred the chicken.
Step: Add the cream cheese, mozzarella cheese and Monterey jack cheese to the crockpot and continue cooking on high for 20-30 minutes, just so the cheese melts.
Step: While the cheese is melting, cook your pasta according to package directions and drain well.
Step: Add the cooked pasta to the crockpot and stir to combine. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

You can prepare the sauce portion ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2 days. This dish pairs beautifully with a side salad, roasted vegetables, or garlic bread. For a lighter version, use reduced-fat cream cheese and low-fat soup.
