GARLIC BUTTER CHICKEN AND PASTA

Hi all! I have another pasta slow cooker meal for you. I made this the other day while we were out at the lake, came home boiled the noodles and dinner was served. I cook my noodles separately,  not in the slow cooker. I’ve tried many recipes where the noodles are cooked in the slow cooker and I had to toss them out, the noodles get floury and mushy. To make this delicious meal, I start by adding chicken thighs, garlic, onions, carrots, seasonings and butter into my slow cooker.

I will be back soon with another slow cooker recipe. Stay tuned!
