Ingredients
(For a 6-quart slow cooker)
- 1½–2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 (15 oz) can cream-style corn
- 1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom)
- 8 oz wide egg noodles, uncooked
Optional Add-Ins & Substitutions

- Add frozen peas or carrots

- Sprinkle fresh parsley or cracked black pepper before serving
Tools You’ll Need
- 6-quart slow cooker
- Measuring cups
- Two forks for shredding
- Ladle for serving
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Layer the Base
Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Pour cream-style corn evenly over the top. Spoon condensed soup over everything.
Do not stir. (Trust the layering process.)
2. Cook Low & Slow
- LOW: 5–6 hours
- HIGH: 3–4 hours
Chicken should reach 165°F and be fork-tender.
3. Add the Noodles
Gently stir in the uncooked egg noodles.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 20–30 minutes, until noodles are tender.
At this stage, lightly shred the chicken with two forks if desired.
4. Serve Warm
Ladle into shallow bowls so you can see that creamy corn gravy.
Top with parsley or cracked black pepper for a simple finishing touch.
What to Serve With It
This dish is hearty on its own, but here’s how to round out the meal:
- Buttered green beans or peas
- Crisp lettuce salad with vinaigrette
- Warm dinner rolls or farmhouse bread
- Applesauce or dill pickles for an old-fashioned touch
For dessert? Oatmeal cookies or apple pie. Always.
Tips for Perfect Results
- Do not add water or broth — the chicken releases natural juices.
- Add noodles at the end to prevent mushiness.
- Use full-fat soup for the creamiest texture.
- If it thickens too much, stir in ¼ cup milk at the end.
Storage Instructions
Refrigerator: Store up to 3 days in an airtight container. Reheat gently and add a splash of milk if needed.
Freezer: Not ideal — noodles may soften too much after thawing.
Prep Ahead: Trim chicken up to 24 hours in advance.
