16 oz garlic parmesan sauce (Sweet Baby Ray’s or Buffalo Wild Wings)
2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
8 oz cream cheese, cubed
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
8 oz rotini pasta

Instructions
Lay the chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker.
Pour the garlic parmesan sauce and heavy cream over the chicken.
Add cubed cream cheese and sprinkle in the parmesan cheese.
Evenly dust the mixture with onion powder.
Cover and cook on low for 3–4 hours or high for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
About 15 minutes before the chicken is done, cook the rotini pasta as directed on the package. Drain.
Shred the cooked chicken using two forks, then stir to combine it with the creamy sauce.
Mix in the cooked pasta until evenly coated.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
