  5. Once the chicken is fully cooked and the carrots have softened, boil 8-10 oz of medium egg noodles following the directions on the package. Drain egg noodles well once cooked.
  6. Remove the chicken and cut it up into small cubes or shred it with two forks. Add the chicken back to the crockpot and stir well.
  7. Add the cooked egg noodles and about 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Stir and top with dried parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper if needed.

Notes

You could use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. 1/2 cup of heavy cream makes this recipe creamy, but you could use a little bit of milk instead if you do not have heavy cream. If you are trying to eat low sodium you can use low sodium chicken broth, unsalted cream of chicken soup, and leave the salt out of the seasonings in the beginning of the recipe.
