Description

Creamy, comforting, and oh-so-easy! This Italian Chicken Pasta is the ultimate freezer-friendly dinner. Prep ahead, freeze, and enjoy a stress-free meal packed with flavor any night of the week! 🍝 #FreezerMeals #EasyDinnerIdeas


Ingredients

Scale

4 chicken breasts

2 cans cream of chicken soup

1 packet zesty Italian dressing mix

2 8-ounce packages of cream cheese (softened)

1 lb spaghetti noodles


Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Sauce

Grab a mixing bowl and combine the cream of chicken soup, Italian dressing mix, and softened cream cheese until smooth. This heavenly mixture will coat the chicken and pasta in a rich, creamy glaze that you’ll dream about later.

Step 2: For a Freezer Meal Option

Place the chicken breasts into a large freezer-safe Ziploc bag and pour the sauce on top. Lay the bag flat in your freezer for easy storage.

When you’re ready to cook, take the bag out of the freezer the night before and place it in the refrigerator to thaw. Then, follow the cooking instructions below.

Step 3: Cook the Chicken

If fresh, immediately transfer the chicken and sauce mixture to your crockpot or Dutch oven:

  • For Crockpot Method: Cook on low for 4 hours.
  • For Dutch Oven Method: Preheat your oven to 325°F and bake for 1 hour.

The chicken will be tender, juicy, and infused with all those Italian flavors.

Step 4: Prepare the Pasta

While the chicken cooks, boil a pot of water and cook the spaghetti noodles until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 5: Assemble the Dish

Once the chicken is done, shred or dice it into bite-sized pieces (or just leave it whole if you prefer). Plate up the pasta, pour your desired amount of chicken and luscious sauce over the top, and get ready to dig in.
