    Ok seriously yummy tasting, just like many creamy chicken dishes I have out at restaurants but so much more delicious and low carb to boot!

    Absolutely amazing! Used drumsticks which literally fell off the bone. Paired it with the cauliflower mash but next time will pair with something else as found all the dairy a bit rich. Tasted so so good!

    I added bacon and onion. In the last half hour added three cups of baby spinach. SO GOOD !!!
    Never knew cooking cream existed and all the family loved it.

    Def a winner… so yummy and creamy………. can only highly recommend xx

  5. Absolutely love this recipe! So simple but delicious! I used breast as it was all I had, added some baby spinach and served with rice. It was a massive hit with my 1 and 4 year olds! This will become a regular dish in our house!
    Thanks Paulene 🙂

    So tasty! I would have added diced bacon if I had it, next time I will and baby spinach too! Try it, you won’t regret it ?

    Delicious recipe! I used 1kg of diced chicken breast, added 300gm diced bacon,1 TBS of onion flakes and also 125gm of Philadelphia cream cheese. I also added cooked fettucine to the slow cooker before serving. Very creamy and yummy, will be making again for sure 🙂

    Looking forward to making this recipe… very Keto diet friendly another great alternative to cauliflower flower mash which is also keto diet friendly is shirataki noodles which can be added just before serving until heated through

  9. Where would I buy a searing slow cooker from in Australia?
    Until I joined this group I’d never heard of such a thing.

      Kat you can read the reviews of our searing slow cookers HERE
      All major appliance type stores sell them 🙂

    YUM! This is the easiest recipe to make…And my whole family liked it – WINNER!
    I added some fried bacon and a couple handfuls of baby spinach leaves, served with spiral pasta.
    Will definitely be making this again.

    Pretty good, did the trick for leftovers for the week. Not a lot of flavour though, could’ve done with some onion or spring onion maybe. Will definitely give it another go in the future though.

    So tasty. We all enjoyed it. Next time I’ll double the recipe & freeze individual meal size portions. Thanks Paulene
