Who doesn’t love a good creamy chicken dish?!?! This Slow Cooker Chicken a la King is full of flavorful veggies and all served up in a flaky puff party. Yeah, you read right. Puff pastries aren’t just for desserts! But if you’re crazy and not into puff pastry you can serve this creamy chicken and veggies over any starch– pasta, rice, biscuits… whatever. I absolutely love my slow cooker! Most people think to use it in the winter to make hearty roasts but I actually use it most in the summer time. It lets me make a delicious meal for my family while outside with my kids enjoying the beautiful sunny days. Plus, I don’t have to stand over a hot stove. Chicken tastes amazing when cooked properly in the slow cooker. Operative word– properly. Chicken isn’t a tough meat so it doesn’t need tons of time to cook, otherwise, it will become dry. When you cook chicken in the slow cooker, it takes just 3-4 hours on low and then you’ve got perfectly cooked, moist and tender chicken that shreds beautifully. Since the chicken doesn’t need long in the slow cooker, you’ll precook the onions and celery in the microwave for 5 minutes to ensure that they are nice and tender by the end of cooking. Then just toss all the veggies, chicken, cream of chicken soup, and broth into the slow cooker and let it cook. After 3 hours, you’ll mix in the frozen peas, cream cheese, and cornstarch with water and let it cook for 30 minutes on high without the lid on. This allows the sauce to thicken. At the end, you just shred the chicken and serve over puff pastry, noodles, rice… Enjoy! More yummy chicken dinners to enjoy: © SpendWithPennies.com. Content and photographs are copyright protected.
