Cream Cheese Chicken
Source: Dottie (hokiesmom on BBC)
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (approximately 2 lbs trimmed)
1-2 pkgs. dry Ranch or Italian Dressing mix (used 1 pkt dry Spicy Ranch, and 1 pkt dry original Ranch)
1 can cream of onion soup (can use any cream of __ soup, can also be left out and it still tastes yummy)
8 oz light cream cheese -- cut into cubes
1/2 cup chicken broth (I never need any chicken broth since I use frozen chicken breasts)
4 oz sliced white button mushrooms (optional - I leave these out most of the time now)
4 cups cooked rice
Place chicken in a Crock Pot, spritz chicken with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray, sprinkle 1 pkg dry Spicy Ranch mix (which ever one you're using) over all. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours. About 45 minutes before done, I pulled the chicken out of the crockpot and shredded it then put it back in the crock pot. (I no longer do this. Instead, I remove the chicken, and mix in the remaining ingredients. I then add the chicken back in, and chop/shred it up with a wooden spoon.) Add soup, second packet of dry dressing mix, cream cheese, mushrooms and chicken broth (you may or may not need the broth, most of the time I don't add any), and cooked rice. Mix it up and let it cook another 45-1 hour.
This is absolutely deliscious and one of my personal favorites. I cook this fairly often.
Recently a lot of family and friends have decided to start sharing all of the recipes that have been declared winners by them and their family. A fellow friend started sharing hers via a blog, and I thought that it was an awesome idea. The recipes found here have not been created by me at all. I'm not that creative. The recipes here have come from anyone and anywhere. If I wasn't absentminded when I copied the recipe, I'll always include where I got the recipe from and a link if possible.
This is one of my favorites too!! We're having it next week!!
