Ingredients

• 12 ounces dry tagliatelle nests
• 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
• 2 cans (10.5 ounces each) condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Lightly grease a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray or a little oil. Add the shredded chicken, then spoon the cream of mushroom soup over it.
2. Pour in the chicken broth and stir gently to create a creamy base. Add the dry tagliatelle nests, pressing them down so they’re mostly submerged in the liquid.
3. Cover and cook on LOW for approximately 2½ to 3½ hours, checking toward the end of cooking. Gently separate the pasta with tongs if needed, and make sure the noodles are tender before proceeding.
4. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Cover for another 5–10 minutes, then stir once more and serve warm.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• Save time with rotisserie chicken: Use leftover cooked chicken or store-bought rotisserie chicken to make preparation even easier.
• Add vegetables: Stir in fresh spinach at the end or add thawed peas during the final 20 minutes for extra color and variety.
• Keep the pasta tender: Slow cookers vary, so begin checking the pasta after 2½ hours to prevent overcooking.
• Boost the flavor: Add minced garlic or sautéed mushrooms for a deeper, more savory taste.
• Make it extra creamy: Sprinkle additional Parmesan over each serving just before serving.
• Choose a delicious side: Pair this creamy chicken tagliatelle with a crisp green salad, steamed green beans, or warm garlic bread.
