  • 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes Optional
  • Salt to taste

  • 1 lb Pasta Penne, Rotini, or Farfalle
  • 1 Cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese
  • 1/2 Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Equipment

  • Crock Pot
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons
  • Fork
  • Large pot
  • Colander
  • Stirring Spoon or Spatula
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crock pot in a single layer.
  2. Pour the entire bottle of Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan sauce over the chicken.
  3. Add the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the crock pot.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Gently stir to combine the ingredients, ensuring the chicken is coated in the sauce.
  5. Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily shreds with a fork.
  6. Once the chicken is cooked, use two forks to shred it directly in the crock pot.
  7. Stir the shredded chicken into the sauce, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
  8. While the chicken is cooking, cook the pasta according to the package directions. Be sure to salt the pasta water! Cook until al dente.
  9. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it well.
  10. Add the cooked pasta to the crock pot with the chicken and sauce. Stir well to combine, making sure the pasta is fully coated in the sauce.
  11. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese over the top of the pasta mixture in the crock pot.
  12. Cover the crock pot and let it sit for a few minutes, or until the cheese is melted and gooey. You can also turn the crock pot to low for about 5-10 minutes to speed up the melting process.
  13. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Don't overcook the chicken; use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). If you can’t find the Buffalo Wild Wings brand sauce, any garlic parmesan wing sauce will work. Al dente pasta is crucial; overcooked pasta will become mushy. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like provolone or Monterey Jack. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Add a splash of chicken broth or milk to loosen the sauce when reheating.
