Ingredients
  

  • 1 kilo chicken thighs, boneless and skinless OR use breasts
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1 packet dry Italian salad dressing mix, OR make from a shortcut
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 125 grams Cream cheese, this is 1/2 of a standard block, cubed
  • 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions
 

  • Add the soup and dressing mix to your slow cooker and mix, slowly whisk in the water and mix until little to no lumps are present then stir in the bell pepper. Add the chicken, cover and cook on Low setting for 6-8 hours or on High setting for 3-5 hours. Check the tenderness of the chicken at the first time shown.
  • When the chicken is tender, add the Cream cheese and the Parmesan cheese and cook for another 30 minutes, covered. Stir the sauce to ensure the Cream cheese is fully blended in. Serve over rice or pasta.

Notes

Chicken thighs (you would have to debone them and remove the skin) runs about 73 Baht/kilo, breasts would run about 61 Baht/kilo. The Cream cheese would be about 60 Baht for a 1/2 block, and the Parmesan would be about 50 Baht. For 4 servings this is about $1.35 per serving, less for 6 servings. Make the shortcuts for greater savings.
