  • 6 Garlic Cloves, finely minced
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan Cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon Oregano

Laura writes: “I adapted this recipe for a 3.5lb pork roast in the crockpot. I cut the roast in half lengthwise so it would cook faster, and cooked the two halves for 6 hours on low. Then I added all the creamy deliciousness the last half hour. Absolutely mouth-watering!”

  1. kristen says:

    can you make this with chicken tenders?

    1. Heidi says:

      Absolutely, Kristen… just keep an eye on the cook time, as you may need to adjust it a bit.

  2. Cynthia says:

    Can you freeze this for meals later?

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Cynthia ~ this recipe really is best when served immediately. 🙂

  3. Brooke says:

    Can this be converted to an instant Pot recipe? If so how? Thank you in advance!

  4. Mary says:

    Can this be made in a 4 quart crock pot? If so, should I adjust the cooking times/settings?

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Mary ~ this works best in a 5 – 7 quart crock pot.

  5. Sandy says:

    Can a pressure cooker be use to cook the chicken?

  6. Kim says:

    I would like to make this for Christmas dinner for 21 people. Can I stack the chicken on top of each other? Obviously I’ll need a few crockpots.

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Kim ~ this recipe honestly works best laying the chicken in a single layer. I would try to round up 4 – 5 large crockpots if you can, and just cook that way. Hope that helps! 🙂

  7. Holly says:

    Now with the instant pot (electric pressure cooker) being all the rage, can you make this in there? I’d love to know how, i’m such a newbie to that type of cooking! This sounds so yummy!

  8. Jen says:

    This my family’s favorite meal now. They beg for it regularly and I only get positive feedback every time. It is creamy and delicious and the chicken is so moist. Thank you!

    1. Heidi says:

      Aww ~ you’re very welcome, Jen! So glad to hear your family loves it! 🙂

  9. Chrissy says:

    The only garlic I have it powder or salt. Can I substitute with one of those?

    1. Heidi says:

      Chrissy,

      I don’t recommend substituting the garlic, as the fresh garlic really makes this recipe amazing.

      Hope this helps ~ Heidi

  10. Bryt says:

    What sides are you guys serving this dish with?

    1. Jen says:

      I made asparagus. 🙂

      1. Heidi Miller says:

        That sounds like a delicious side!
