Slow Cooker Savory Mushroom Chicken

Where are my mushroom fans at? Me me! My kids don’t like them but my husband and I sure do! The mushrooms are the star of this chicken and noodles dish. The creamy sauce that surrounds them is dreamy too. I ended up using linguine noodles but if you want to use fettuccine noodles or spaghetti you can do that instead.

What Slow Cooker Did You Use?

To make Slow Cooker Savory Mushroom Chicken I used my 6 quart oval Kitchenaid slow cooker.* I love this slow cooker. It cooks low and evenly. I love the medium heat choice because most slow cookers that I’ve seen only have the option of cooking on low or high. If you’re going to buy just one slow cooker, this is the one that I recommend.

    I tried this yesterday and added some corn starch to thicken the sauce as well as some white wine to give it a little more flavor. Recipe turned out great and I’ll definitely try it again!

    I was hoping to learn more about the nutritional information for this recipe (i.e. calories, carbs, protein, sodium, etc). Would it be possible for you to provide this information?

    Thanks!

    Made this last night, and while delicious, mine did not turn out like the dish pictured. The sauce was too thin, not creamy at all. In the directions it says to “drain the water.” Does that refer to the pasta or the cooking liquid in the crockpot? I assumed you meant the pasta, but maybe not? I did have a lot of liquid in the crockpot due, I suppose to the butter and mushrooms, but I didn’t drain it. Should I? Thanks.

      You’re right, I meant the pasta water. I’m sorry it was too thin!

        This tastes fabulous. But I had the same issue of the sauce being soupy. Is there a thickener that was forgot on this ingredient list? I drained the noodles, but not the mushrooms and chicken – as you stated both in the recipe and your response above. Any ideas?

          Next time I would add in 2 Tbsp of tapioca at the beginning. Or you could thicken with a cornstarch slurry at the end.

      Same here. The sauce is very runny. Not as flavorful as I would’ve thought.
