5 Ingredient Crockpot Chicken And Noodles
My easy Chicken and Noodles recipe is right here! I personally love this recipe—whenever I have just a few ingredients and want something delicious, this is my go-to. My whole family loves it, and using the crockpot makes it super easy to prepare.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 2 cans 10.5 ounces each cream of chicken soup
- 3 cups chicken broth preferably low-sodium
- 12 ounces wide egg noodles about ¾ of a standard 16 oz bag
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter half a stick
Instructions
- Lightly spray the inside of your crockpot with non-stick spray for easier cleanup.Place the chicken breasts or thighs on the bottom of the crockpot.
- Pour the can of cream of chicken soup over the chicken. Add the chicken broth, covering the chicken completely. Dot the top with small pieces of butter.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for about 3–4 hours, until the chicken is very tender and easily shreds with a fork.
- Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken right in the crockpot. Stir it into the broth and soup mixture to combine.
- Add the uncooked egg noodles directly into the crockpot.Stir to submerge the noodles into the liquid as much as possible.
- Cover and cook on HIGH for about 20–30 minutes, checking and stirring once halfway through.
- Tip: If the mixture looks a little thick after adding noodles, you can pour in a splash of extra chicken broth to loosen it up.
- Once the noodles are tender, give everything a final stir. Taste and season with a little salt and pepper if needed.
