Here’s how to make it:
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breasts: Tender and juicy, perfect for shredding or cubing.
- 1/2 tsp each of salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme: These classic seasonings enhance the flavor of the chicken.
- 1 tsp paprika: Adds a subtle smokiness and color.
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes: For a touch of heat—adjust to taste.
- 1 TBSP minced garlic: Infuses the dish with savory goodness.
- 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes: These provide a sweet and tangy flavor.
- 2 15 oz jars Alfredo sauce: Creamy and rich, this forms the base of your sauce.
- 1 lb spaghetti: The perfect pasta to soak up all the creamy goodness.
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese: Adds a salty, nutty flavor.
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese: For that gooey, melty finish.
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Start by placing the chicken breasts in a large crockpot. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, oregano, thyme, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes on top.
- Add Alfredo Sauce: Pour the Alfredo sauce over the chicken, making sure it’s well covered. This rich sauce will cook into the chicken, making it incredibly tender and flavorful.
- Slow Cook: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 4 to 6 hours. This slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld together and ensures the chicken is perfectly cooked.
- Cook the Spaghetti: About 30 minutes before the chicken is done, cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Shred the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the crockpot and cut it into cubes or shred it with two forks. Return the chicken to the crockpot.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked spaghetti to the crockpot. Sprinkle in the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese. Stir everything together until well combined and the cheeses are melted.
- Finish and Serve: For an extra touch, top with dried parsley and additional Parmesan cheese before serving.
