INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoons freeze-dried chives
  • 1 (0.7-ounce) package Italian dressing mix OR 1-1/2 tablespoons homemade mix
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 (10-ounce) container refrigerated four cheese Alfredo sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

PREPARATION:

Cut chicken breasts into strips and place into a 3-4 quart crockpot. In a medium bowl, combine melted butter, cream cheese, garlic, chives, Italian dressing mix, broth, Alfredo sauce, Italian seasoning, and pepper and stir until blended. Pour over chicken in crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Stir well, then serve over hot cooked pasta or rice.

You could add vegetables to this recipe to make it a one-dish meal. A package of baby carrots, or a cup of chopped onion should be placed under the chicken and cooked for the full time. Add sliced mushrooms to the crockpot in the last 2 hours. And add sliced bell peppers or zucchini during the last hour of cooking. Serves 4-6
