Equipment

  • crockpot/slow cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz. rotini or elbow noodles
  • 3 c. cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 c. chicken broth
  • 16 oz. sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 8 oz. cream cheese
  • 2 ¼ c. milk
  • ½ c. buffalo sauce more or less to taste (can add more at the end)
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
  • green onions sliced, for topping

Instructions
 

  • Place cooked chicken in your crockpot and sprinkle with ranch seasoning mix.
  • Add shredded cheddar cheese and cream cheese. Pour in milk, chicken broth, and buffalo sauce.
  • Cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 5-6 hours.
  • Approximately 30 minutes before cooking is complete, boil noodles until al dente according to package instructions.
  • Add cooked pasta to the crockpot, stirring to coat with the sauce. Serve topped with sliced green onions and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness and to avoid overcooking the chicken. Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165F.
  • Add buffalo sauce gradually to tailor the level of heat to your preference.
  • To cut the prep time commitment of the recipe down, consider purchasing a rotisserie chicken.
