Crockpot Italian Chicken
8 chicken breasts
2 packet dry Zesty Italian dressing (Regular is fine but I like zesty better.
2 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened2- cans cream of chicken soup
Place the chicken in a crockpot and sprinkle Italian dressing over it. Combine cream cheese and cream of chicken soup in a small bowl and pour over chicken. Cook on low in the crockpot for at least 4 hours. You can leave it in there all day. Once chicken is done you can leave the chicken breasts whole, cube it, or even shred it. I always cut the breasts into tenderloin size strips. Once you have cut up the chicken, throw it back in the crockpot and stir into the sauce.
If you feel the sauce is too thick you can thin it to your preferred consistency with a little milk. Serve over pasta or rice. Also, if I don't have enough time I put it in the oven.
