What!? 3 Ingredients to make this slammin' slow cooker chicken. #slowcooker #crockpot

This was the first time using Portobella mushrooms (Baby Bellas in this case) in my slow cooker, but it sure won’t be the last.

I just love them cooked almost any way, but they really add a lot to this very simple recipe.

With only three ingredients like my classic salsa chicken, plus some salt and pepper, this is a no fuss simple dinner idea.

If you are a mushroom lover, you will adore this quick fix!

    • Rossanne Strachan, did you ever get a reply? I'm scanning the comments and I can't see one. Could make a big diff in end flavor profile to have crm of mush vs. crm of chick.

  3. Can you convert this to Keto friendly by omitting the soup, use chicken broth and cream cheese instead?

  7. You could try fouling some of the liquid out of the mushrooms to make it less soupy. I will be trying this recipe next week.

    • Hey Danielle, did you use a small can of soup? Did you use fresh mushrooms? The soup is soupy, especially when it's piping hot. We use the liquid as a gravy and re-pour over the chicken. Hope that helps!
