Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 4h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2-2 lbs boneless skinless chicken
Lipton Recipe Secrets savory herb with garlic soup mix
8 ounces cream cheese
1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (10 ounce) can water
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 -2 tablespoon cajun seasoning
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
canned mushroom
8 ounces parmesan cheese
linguine

Steps:

  • Coat the chicken in the Cajun seasoning and throw everything in the crock pot on low for 4-5 hours. (I find it best to heat the cream cheese in the microwave for 30 seconds and then mix the soups with the cream cheese).
  • Add the Parmesan cheese an hour before serving. Linguini noodles are my favorite pasta to use with this dish, but any pasta will do. Hope you enjoy as much as we do!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for high-quality chicken breasts, Alfredo sauce, and Cajun seasoning.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: If you overcrowd the slow cooker, the chicken will not cook evenly. Make sure there is enough space for the chicken to cook in a single layer.
  • Cook the chicken on low for 6-8 hours: This will allow the chicken to cook slowly and evenly. If you cook the chicken on high, it may dry out.
  • Shred the chicken before serving: This will make the chicken easier to eat and will help it to absorb the Alfredo sauce.
  • Serve the chicken Alfredo with your favorite sides: Some popular sides include pasta, rice, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This crock-pot Cajun chicken Alfredo is a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is cooked slowly in a creamy Alfredo sauce, and it is infused with Cajun spices. The chicken Alfredo can be served with a variety of sides, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
