Notes

  1. Watch the chicken closely. Chicken breasts can dry out in the slow cooker, so start checking them at the earliest cooking time and remove them as soon as they’re tender and cooked through.
  2. Don’t skip shaking the sauce bottle. Add the milk to the empty BWW sauce bottle and give it a good shake to get every last bit of Parmesan garlic sauce into the crockpot.
  3. Whisk the sauce until smooth. Once you remove the cooked chicken, whisk the softened cream cheese into the sauce until completely incorporated before returning the shredded chicken.
  4. Keep the pasta al dente. It will continue to soften once it’s stirred into the hot sauce, so avoid overcooking it on the stove.
  5. Grate your own Parmesan. Freshly grated Parmesan melts more smoothly and gives the sauce better flavor and texture than pre-shredded cheese.
  6. Adjust the consistency if needed. The sauce thickens as it sits. Stir in a splash of warm milk or reserved pasta water if you’d like to loosen it.
