Ingredients
Scale
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (10.75 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup
4 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water (slurry)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts, diced tomatoes, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and pepper into the crock pot.
Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Remove the chicken from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
Stir in the heavy cream, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese until the cheeses melt into the broth.
Stir the cornstarch slurry into the soup. Cover and cook on high for an additional 15 minutes, or until the soup thickens slightly.
Serve hot.
Notes
For a brighter flavor, add 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese at the end instead of stirring it in with the mozzarella.
If you prefer a less creamy soup, reduce the heavy cream to 1/4 cup and omit the cornstarch slurry.
This soup freezes well; cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
