Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 3 cloves Minced garlic
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 1.5 cups Heavy cream
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, cubed
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 8 ounces Uncooked fettuccine pasta
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.

Step 2

Add the butter, minced garlic, chicken broth, heavy cream, and cubed cream cheese on top of the chicken.

Step 3

Sprinkle Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning over the mixture.

Step 4

Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.

Step 5

After the chicken is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, then return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.

Step 6

Break the uncooked fettuccine pasta into halves or thirds and add it to the slow cooker. Stir everything to combine well, ensuring the pasta is submerged in the sauce.

Step 7

Cover and continue cooking on high for an additional 20-30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the pasta is tender but not overcooked.

Step 8

Once the pasta is cooked, give everything a good stir to coat the pasta in the sauce.

Step 9

Serve warm, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
