Ingredients
  

  • 1 kilo chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced, think King Oyster, Shiitake, or Straw
  • 1 1/2 packages Cream cheese, 250 grams per package
  • 1/2 cup butter, this is 1/2 block of butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 300 grams pasta, of your choice, spaghetti, spirals, fettuccine, etc
  • 2/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 3/4 cup spring onions, thinly sliced
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • First thing, you need to make the Alfredo sauce, this is easy. Melt the Cream cheese and butter in a saucepan, stir in the milk, season with salt and pepper. See, that was easy.
  • Add the sauce you just made to the slow cooker, then add the mushrooms, chicken stock, nutmeg, and season with salt and pepper as desired, mix.
  • Add the chicken to the slow cooker and stir to coat. Cook on Low setting for 5-6 hours.
  • Just before the chicken is done, cook your pasta and drain, splash a bit of olive oil on the pasta to prevent sticking and set aside.
  • When the chicken is done, stir the Parmesan cheese into the slow cooker, serve over hot pasta, sprinkle each serving with sliced spring onion.

Notes

Chicken will cost about 100 Baht/kilo. Cream cheese will cost about 120 Baht. Easily under $1 per serving.
