How to Make Slow Cooker Chicken Spaghetti
Step 1: Prepare the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot.
Season with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2: Add the Sauces
Pour the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and Rotel over the chicken.
Add chicken broth.
Stir gently to combine (it’s okay if it’s not perfectly mixed—the crockpot will do the work).
Step 3: Cook
Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Step 4: Shred the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the crockpot and shred it using two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot and stir it into the sauce.
Step 5: Add Cheese and Pasta
Add the cream cheese and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the crockpot. Stir until melted and well combined.
Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and add the cooked noodles to the crockpot.
Mix everything until the noodles are evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
Step 6: Finish and Serve
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Cover and let the cheese melt for 5-10 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions, if desired, and serve warm.
