Directions
Layer the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot and season generously with salt and pepper.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat to avoid browning.
Combine the Italian dressing mix, cream cheese, golden mushroom soup, and wine or broth in the saucepan, stirring until smooth and creamy.
Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken, ensuring it's well-coated.
Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the chicken is fork-tender.
Cook the angel hair pasta according to package instructions, then drain.
Shred or slice the tender chicken and return it to the sauce, stirring to combine.
Serve over warm angel hair pasta and garnish with fresh parsley and Parmesan, if desired.
For best results, cook on low for 4-5 hours. Keep pasta separate until serving to maintain texture.
