    This is not your standard mushy crockpot meal. This creamy Italian chicken is packed with flavor and topped with crunch!

    Served over pasta or rice for a complete meal.

    ★ Why You'll Love this Recipe ★

    The chicken and sauce is slow cooked in your Crockpot. Then served over cooked pasta. For a finishing touch, we're adding crispy panko crumbs!

    This is a family dinner that's easy to make, you can set to cook while you work and even stores well so you can bring leftovers to lunch.

    ★ Ingredients You'll Need ★

    This dish comes together with a very simplified list of ingredients.

    Creamy Crockpot Italian Chicken Ingredients

    Here's everything you'll need:

    • Chicken. You can use chicken breast or cutlet. If using breasts, you will want to pound them flat for better texture and to improve cook time.
    • Italian dressing. This acts as a marinade and a sauce.
    • Cream cheese. This thickens and adds a rich creaminess to the sauce.
    • Mixed Vegetables. You can use frozen or fresh veggies. I use a blend of corn, carrots, green beans and peas. Or just peas and carrots.
    • Oil. Any cooking oil will do. Try olive oil, or keep it simple with vegetable oil.
    • Fried Onions. These add a yummy crunch, elevating this crockpot chicken dinner. This is optional, but not too hard to pull off and really adds a nice texture to this dish!
    • Cooked pasta or rice. Choose your favorite noodle shape. I think bow tie pasta is fun for this dish or egg noodles but truly, any pasta or rice works. Try mixing it up if you make this dish often.
