Use your own Italian Salad Dressing Mix in this super easy recipe to control sodium content.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 8 oz. container cream cheese with chives, softened
  • 10 oz. can condensed cream of mushroom soup with roasted garlic
  • 0.7 oz. pkg. Italian dressing mix or 1-1/2 Tbsp. Homemade Italian Salad Dressing Mix
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 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, softened cream cheese, soup, Italian dressing mix, broth, 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
