This dish is one of my favorite new low carb recipes on the site. The flavors in this dish are so unique and so yummy! It is an easy one-pot meal and even though it is low carb, that cheesy topping is so delicious no one would dare call this diet food!
Notes on Crock Pot Creamy Asparagus Chicken (Low Carb) Recipe
- We love making this recipe in our Casserole Crock and our 6 quart slow cookers, especially our multicookers because they allow us to saute the mushrooms in the same pot that we use to slow cook.
- If you aren’t sure how to properly trim asparagus watch the beginning of the video to learn how to snap off the ends for perfectly tender asparagus every time.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
- Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
- Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.

I made this and really enjoyed it. I added fresh thyme, sage, oregano and rosemary which really went well with the creamy and savory flavors you have put together. I also added some fresh corn kernels. Definitely adding this recipe to my repertoire. Thanks!!
What a great dish! Wife prepared this last night and placed it in the refrigerator overnight. She turned the crock on this morning and it was all ready by lunchtime! Worth making over and over!
I’m so glad to hear it Jerry! Thank you for taking the time to let us know. It makes our day to hear our readers enjoy a recipe we have posted!
is the carb count at the end the correct i am a diabetic and i try to keep track of what i have for a carb count.. i am really wanting to try this. it looks good
Hi Teresa!
The nutritional values are calculated with an automated program. We highly recommend looking at the nutritional values on the specific ingredients you are using to calculate the precise nutritional values for what you eat. Hope this helps!

Hi, making this for the first time. Can’t wait! Can I use 10oz of cream of mushroom instead of the fresh mushrooms? Thanks!
Can a can of cream of chicken be added to this recipe for more flavor ?
Hi Shannon-
You could certainly give it a try. However, we really couldn’t speak to how it will taste since we haven’t tried it. Let us know how it goes.
Hi Chris, I have the chicken asparagus recipe in my crock pot. It smells so good. Can’t wait to try it. I was wondering why you don’t clean the fat off the chicken before you put it in the crock pot? Especially chicken thighs. Enjoy your recipes.
Hi Diane-
I hope you enjoy it as much as we do! We don’t trim the fat off our chicken due to personal preference. We enjoy the flavor it adds and it fits within our Low Carb High Fat (LCHF) diet. Feel free to trim yours if you prefer a leaner meat.Enjoy!!
This looks amazing! I’m making this tomorrow in my cassole Crock-pot. I need to replace my 6 quart that died on me few months back.. Now that Oregon is getting some rain, a much needed warm tummy meal is in order, and this fits the bill perfectly! Thanks for sharing, and I can’t wait to try the next low carb creation!
Hope you enjoyed it , Chelle!!
Absolutely delicious and going into regular rotation. I plan to try it with chopped broccoli when asparagus gets too expensive. Also need to increase the amounts of those delicious mushrooms!
Thanks Goode fam!
Oh so glad to hear it, Kim!!

Thanks, Chris. I am from Indy but live in Fl. now. Enjoy seeing you and your family at home. Love the recipes, using them all the time!
Hi Vicki!
Always happy to see another Hoosier around here 🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by to leave such a nice note. We appreciate it!!
What is the servings size (how much?)
Hi Jacquie!
Servings are always a flexible thing with home cooking. Our family gets about 8 portions out of this dish. I typically just cut (or scoop) the casserole into 8 portions. Hope that helps!
The recipe for Crock Pot Creamy Asparagus Chicken does not say the quantity needed for mushrooms. Please update. Thank you.
Hi Anne-
Sorry about that! We have added the 8 oz sliced mushrooms to the ingredient list.
do not see mushrooms in recipe.
Thanks for catching that, Vicki!
