I created this recipe one day when I wanted to have a nice meal but had just gotten off a 96 hour shift and didn't have the energy to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. It's also a nice way to sneak veggies into picky eaters. Want to get fancy for a special dinner or for guests? Add some cooked medium size shrimp! This is such a fun recipe to play with and fix in a wide variety of ways, there's really no end of possibilities for it!!

How To Make irresistable chicken and veggies

  • 1
    Pierce each chicken thigh several times with a fork; put into a greased 5 or 6 quart slow cooker. Arrange the potatoes, carrots, and celery over the chicken.
  • 2
    Combine the soup, milk, Italian seasoning, evaporated milk, and the cubes of cream cheese. Pour over the chicken and vegetables.
  • 3
    Cover and cook on HIGH for 4-5 hours or till the chicken is done and the vegetables are tender. Any combination of vegetables can be used, whatever your family enjoys. Sometimes when I prepare this dish for my dad, I add some hot pepper sauce or buffalo wing sauce to the cream cheese and soup mixture since he likes spicier foods.
