Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (12 oz) bottle Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Sauce
  • 1.5 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (trimmed)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup milk
  • 8 oz cream cheese (cut into cubes)
  • ¼ cup grated or shredded parmesan cheese
  • 12 to 16 oz pasta (rotini or penne, cooked to package directions)

Instructions

  1. Season the Chicken: Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place them in the bottom of the crockpot.
  2. Add Sauce: Pour the entire bottle of parmesan garlic sauce over the chicken.
  3. Milk Mixture: Add the milk to the empty sauce bottle, shake well, and pour it over the chicken.
  4. Cheese: Add the cream cheese cubes and grated parmesan cheese to the crockpot. Stir gently to combine and ensure the chicken is coated in the sauce.
  5. Cook: Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  6. Shred Chicken: Remove the chicken, shred it with two forks or dice it into bite-sized pieces, and return it to the crockpot.
  7. Add Pasta: Cook the pasta according to package directions, drain, and stir it into the crockpot until well combined.
  8. Serve: Garnish with extra parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, or chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

  1. Chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for the best results. Thighs will add extra juiciness.
  2. Sauce: If you can’t find Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Sauce, substitute with any store-bought garlic parmesan sauce or make your own by mixing melted butter, minced garlic, and grated parmesan.
  3. Pasta: Cook the pasta al dente to avoid it becoming too soft when mixed with the sauce.
  4. Customize: Add veggies like spinach, broccoli, or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor and nutrition.
  5. Leftovers: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat with a splash of milk to restore creaminess.
