  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 0.6 ounces Italian dressing mix
  • 1 pound angel hair pasta to serve

Preparation

  • Prepare the slow cooker by spraying the inside with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

  • Blend in the cream of chicken soup and chicken stock until smooth.
  • Add the Italian dressing mix and stir until well combined.

Cooking

  • Pour the creamy mixture over the chicken and garlic, ensuring it covers the chicken thoroughly.
  • Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
  • Approximately 30 minutes before finishing, shred the chicken right in the pot and stir it into the sauce.

Serving

  • Cook the angel hair pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
  • Serve the warm angel hair pasta topped with the shredded chicken and sauce. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

Notes

Avoid overcooking the chicken to prevent drying out. Use fresh ingredients for best flavor. Can be made ahead of time; tastes better the next day.
