Slower cooker recipes like this crockpot chicken and rice, are the best when it comes to easy meals.
If you have picky eaters in your family, this is a great crockpot chicken recipe. My littlest can be very choosy when it comes to eating but this is one of her favorite meals.
HOW TO MAKE CROCKPOT CHICKEN AND NOODLES
- Start by making the homemade cream sauce.
- Heat chicken broth and 1/2 cup of milk in a saucepan.
- In a bowl, whisk together remaining milk and flour. Make sure there are no lumps of flour.
- Pour the flour mixture into the saucepan and stir until thickens.
- Place chicken breasts in slow cooker. Make sure to season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Pour sauce over chicken and cook for 4-6 hours.
- Once the chicken has cooked, remove from the slow cooker and shred. Return chicken back to the slow cooker and mix with the cream sauce.
- Add cooked noodles into the slow cooker and stir until coated with sauce.
TIPS FOR CROCKPOT CHICKEN AND NOODLES
- I like to add mixed frozen vegetables sometimes after I shred the chicken and return to the slow cooker for a complete meal.
- This is also great served with steamed vegetables or a salad on the side.
- To reheat leftover you can put back in the slow cooker, add about 1/4 cup chicken broth and put on warm setting. You can also reheat in a pot on the stove, again adding about 1/4 cup chicken broth.
