Creamy Artichoke and Mushroom Chicken is a wonderful recipe to try in the slow cooker, serve or rice or noodles.

This recipe has plenty of creaminess in it just like my crack chicken recipe or boursin cheese chicken pasta!

This is a recipe I had to recreate after Marie Callender’s Artichoke Mushroom Chicken. I worked at Marie Callender’s for years and this dish was one of my favorites. The restaurant served this over rice and veggies on the side. Is it still on the menu for those of you that are near one?

How to make Artichoke Mushroom Chicken:

• Chicken Breasts – Boneless skinless
• Dried Basil – LOTS of this is the key to this dish
• Salt and Pepper
• Garlic
• Mushrooms
• Artichokes – canned quartered artichokes that are drained very well.
• Cream Cheese – Two whole blocks!
• Onion
• Chicken Broth

• Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Sprinkle over the basil, salt and pepper.
• Add the onions, mushrooms, and artichokes.
• Add the cream cheese on top.

How long do I cook?

• Place the lid on the slow cooker.
• Cook on LOW for 7 hours without opening the lid during the cooking time.

• Shred the chicken with two forks right in the slow cooker.
• Stir the sauce and chicken together to get the cream cheese to disperse.

Can I use white wine instead of chicken broth?

Yes, use 1 cup of your favorite white wine instead of chicken broth in this recipe.

How do I serve Artichoke Mushroom Chicken?

• On cooked pasta – I used Cavvatappi in the photo below.
• Over steamed white rice.
• Over vegetables, if you are watching your carbs.

Can I freeze the leftovers?

• Yes, put in little containers or freezer ziplock bags.
• Freeze for up to 3 months.
• Thaw in the fridge for 24 hours before needing it.
