Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs . (about 4 pieces) skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 2 small yellow onions , sliced
  • 3 whole cloves of garlic , peeled and smashed
  • 1 large carrot , sliced into rounds
  • 2 fresh tomatoes , diced
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh or dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh or dried parsley
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 can (14.5 oz. each) low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 bag (16 ounces) of egg noodles, prepared according to the directions on the package
  • Parsley for garnish

Instructions 

  • Gather all your prepared ingredients, except for the heavy cream and noodles, into the pot of your 7-quart, or larger, slow cooker.
  • Cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, or on LOW for 6 to 7 hours.
  • Stir in the heavy cream.
  • Continue to cook for 5 more minutes, or until heated through.
  • Spoon on top of egg noodles and garnish with parsley.

Notes

*** If you want a thicker sauce: You will need 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons flour. Melt the butter in a frying pan and whisk in the flour; continue to whisk until thick and creamy. Remove and whisk the roux into the broth only after it has finished cooking in the crock pot.
