Slow Cooker Garlic Chicken and Pasta is a great dish to make for a busy weeknight when you have little time to make a meal for your family. It is highly recommended to cook your noodles separately and then blend them in with the rest of your ingredients. The noodles can tend to get too mushy if you leave them in the slow cooker the entire time. Start by adding chicken thighs, garlic, onions, carrots, seasonings, and butter into your slow cooker. After at least 6 hours of simmering, you can shred the chicken and then add your noodles in for an absolutely delicious easy slow cooker chicken and pasta dish.

Another great way to use chicken thighs but since it is shredded I may get away with this one a lot easier than the whole thighs.A great simple and easy meal that is a little different than just chicken all the time. This looks so tasty and I love chicken. I almost only eat chicken and look for different ways to make it. I do love the tip of cooking the pasta and then adding when done. Mine always got soggy. I bet you can use your leftover turkey in this recipe after thanksgiving. Anyone try turkey in this dish instead of chicken?
