Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff Recipe:
Ingredients:

- 1 ounce package of dry onion soup mix
- 10 1/2 ounce can cream of chicken soup
- 8 ounce package of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 16 ounce package wide egg noodles
- fresh parsley, chopped for garnish, optional
Equipment Needed:
- Slow Cooker
- Pasta cooker
- Small mixing bowl
🥣 Recipe Tips
- Soften Cream Cheese Thoroughly: Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to room temperature before mixing with the onion soup mix and cream of chicken soup. This creates a smooth, even sauce that blends seamlessly, preventing lumps in the final dish.
- Check Chicken Doneness Early: Start checking the chicken thighs at the lower end of the cooking time (3 hours on high or 4 hours on low) to avoid overcooking, which can dry out the meat. Use a fork to test if the chicken shreds easily before removing bones.
- Cook Noodles Al Dente: Prepare the egg noodles just before serving and cook them slightly al dente (firm to the bite) as they’ll continue to soften when topped with the hot stroganoff sauce, maintaining a perfect texture for the dish.
How to make chicken stroganoff without mushrooms:
Spray your slow cooker with non stick cooking spray. And place thighs into the bottom of the slow cooker.Â
Mix together the softened cream cheese, dry soup mix and cream of chicken soup in a small mixing bowl.
Spread cream cheese, soup mixture on top of chicken thighs as evenly as possible.Â
Cook the slow cooker chicken stroganoff on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 4-6 until chicken is done.  Remove the bones from the chicken thighs and use two forks, shred the chicken and mix.
Cook wide egg noodles according to package instructions. And serve the chicken stroganoff over the cooked noodles and topped with chopped fresh parsley as a garnish.
