Introduction

Low carb and very yummy! I threw this together with ingredients I had on hand and it turned out delicious! My husband and daughter could not get enough of it! I love crockpot recipes, especially in winter. You can use low fat/reduced sodium cream of chicken soup if you want to reduce fat and sodium more and serve this over rice or wide egg noodles if you aren't watching carbs. Low carb and very yummy!

Ingredients

    ~3 lbs raw boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in large chunks
    ~2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced
    ~1 (8 oz) bottle Ken's Steak House Creamy Caesar Dressing (or other creamy Caesar dressing)
    ~4 ounces Neufchatel cheese (low-fat cream cheese)
    ~1 can (10.75 oz) cream of chicken soup
    ~8 oz part skim mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions

Pour bottle of Caesar dressing into crock pot.
Add chicken breast chunks and mushrooms, stir to coat, cover.
Cook on high for about 4 1/2 hours.
(There will be lots of liquid in crock pot at this point and you may remove about one cup of it if a thicker consistency is desired, but the next few ingredients will thicken it rather nicely.)
In bowl, mix together cream of chicken soup and softened cream cheese.
Stir soup/cream cheese mixture into chicken in crock pot gently.
Add mozzarella cheese, stir gently.
Cook another 1/2 hour until cheese is melted and mixture is hot.
Serve and enjoy!

Makes about 8 half cup servings.

    This was really good. I used shitaki & baby portabella mushrooms for more flavor. Next time I would use a 1/2 bottle of the Caesar dressing and omit the mozzarella cheese (only because it doesn't really add any flavor or consistency). - 5/23/12

    I've just started a lower-carb diet, and am trying out new recipes. I tried this last night. IT WAS SO, SO GOOD. So easy, so satisfying, just great. I served it over pureed cauliflower, with stir fry vegetables. I will be making this often. Thanks so much for a FABULOUS recipe! - 8/30/10

    Made a few tweaks. Added a head of broccoli, used a small bottle of light ceasar dressing, less chicken, used a little grated parmesan cheese (only thing I had on hand), 1 serano pepper. The serano pepper added a nice kick to the recipe. It was a hit in my house! - 8/7/12
