Method
 

How to Make Creamy Crockpot Chicken Spaghetti
  1. Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker, ensuring they're evenly spread so they cook thoroughly.
  2. Add the cream of chicken soup, Rotel tomatoes, cream cheese, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper to the crockpot. Stir until well combined.
  3. Secure the lid and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
  4. Once cooked, carefully shred the chicken in the crockpot using two forks, blending it with the creamy sauce for maximum flavor.
  5. Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and incorporated into the sauce.
  6. Cook the spaghetti noodles separately according to package directions, aiming for al dente, then drain.
  7. Gently fold the drained spaghetti into the crockpot mixture, ensuring every noodle is coated.
  8. Serve hot straight from the crockpot, garnished with extra cheese or chopped parsley if desired.
