Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds chicken breasts
- 1 cup buffalo wild wings sauce
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups pasta (penne or rotini)
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Start by placing the chicken breasts in your crockpot. Pour the buffalo wild wings sauce over the top, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
- Cook the chicken on low for 360 minutes or on high for 180 minutes, until it’s thoroughly cooked and tender.
- Remove the chicken and shred it using two forks, which should be easy after it’s been slow-cooked.
- Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot. Add the heavy cream, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Stir everything together until well combined, creating a creamy mixture that envelops the chicken.
- Add the cooked pasta to the crockpot and gently fold it in.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting to your preference.
- Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
Notes
For an even creamier texture, consider adding more heavy cream or incorporating cream cheese. Adjust salt based on buffalo sauce saltiness. A splash of lemon juice can elevate the flavors.
