Creamy Crockpot Chicken with Prosciutto and Mushrooms
(Easy Crockpot Meals)
Shopping List For This Recipe
- 6 (4 oz) organic boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 envelope Italian salad dressing mix
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1 package (8 ozs.) cream cheese, softened
- 1 carton organic (10 3/4 ozs.) cream of chicken soup (such as Pacific Foods brand)
- 6 oz finely diced pancetta or prosciutto (they are both good here, but pancetta renders more fat which adds a depth of flavor)
- 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
In a large sauté pan, cook pancetta (or prosciutto) on medium heat until lightly browned and fat is rendered. Remove pancetta with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add chicken breasts to the pan drippings and turn heat to medium-high. Brown both sides of the chicken breasts and place in a slow cooker, sprinkling the pancetta on top. Drizzle remaining pancetta drippings over top and sprinkle with the seasoning packet. Pour broth on top. Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours. In a small mixing bowl, blend cream cheese and soup until smooth. Stir in mushrooms. Pour cream cheese mixture over chicken. Cook 1 to 2 hours longer or until chicken juices run clear; stirring once halfway to prevent burning around the edges. Serve over brown rice.
