Italian Crock Pot Chicken

This recipe is AWESOME!!! I had just a few minutes to get out the door so I threw frozen chicken in the crockpot with the seasoning and sat a stick of butter on top. Turned on my crockpot and ran out the door. Hours later I came home and finished this off quickly. It really was so great to walk in the door and finish this meal as quick as I could make rice.
The chicken is amazingly tender and this meal was so so good.
It came from 4 different people in my neighborhood cookbook. It's a hit and will be a regular around here now.
I used the leftovers to make Chicken Pillows. It was yummy.

Ingredients:

6-8 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 packets Italian dressing seasoning mix
1/4 c. water or 1 cube of butter
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 8 oz. package cream cheese
Directions:Combine chicken, Italian dressing mix, and water or butter in crock pot. Cook on high 5-7 hours until chicken falls apart and is very tender. Add the cream of chicken soup and cream cheese and mix it together. Let the chicken slightly shred as you stir it then let it all heat together. Serve over rice or noodles.

*Be careful mixing in the cream cheese and soup. I stirred too much and it got mushy.
*You can also add a can of drained mushrooms or serve it over potatoes. YUM!!!

It's fabulous!! We had chopped onion and only 1 pack of dry Zesty Italian seasoning. It's so, so, so fast and so dang yummy!! My family could eat it weekly.

I make this all the time. It's one recipe that the whole family will eat.
I don't use butter. I just do chicken, soup, cream cheese and seasoning. EASY!
