We recently took our camper kitchen to the gorgeous Shawnee National Forest and thoroughly enjoyed explored the beautiful trails near our campsite. On this day, we wanted to take a hike to Indian Kitchen and I wasn’t quite sure how long it was going to take, so I needed a recipe that I knew could cook most of the day without overcooking. So I threw together our Slow Cooker Creamy Italian Chicken and we took a hike ;).

Hike to Indian Kitchen in Shawnee National Forest

Hike to Indian Kitchen in Shawnee National Forest, IL. Great hiking for family travel.

The hike to Indian Kitchen in the Shawnee National Forest is an out and back trail that is just under 4 miles and took us around 45 min to an hour to get out there. If you want to go down to the bottom of the area, it also requires some navigating steep areas.  But the hike is definitely worth the effort! If you’d like to see the gorgeous views, you can flip through some more pics from our hike here.

Now back to that yummy chicken!

Ingredients for Slow Cooker Creamy Italian Chicken

  • 3 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
  • 1/2 Cup Canned Artichoke Hearts- Drained and Chopped
  • 1/2 Cup Roasted Red Bell Peppers- Chopped
  • 1/4 Cup Sliced Black Olives
  • 4 oz Can Slice Mushrooms – Drained
  • 2 Cups Marinara Sauce (We like this low carb version.)
  • Salt and Pepper- To Taste
  • 8 oz Block Cream Cheese – Cubed
  • Garnish- Mozzarella Cheese

How to Make Creamy Italian Chicken in a Crock Pot

  1. Place thighs in a 6-7 quart slow cooker.
  2. Top evenly with artichokes, peppers, olives and marinara sauce.
  3. Salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Cook on low for 5-7 hours.
  5. Stir in cream cheese until melted.
  6. Serve as is, over noodles or zoodles and top with mozzarella cheese.

Notes on Slow Cooker Creamy Italian Chicken

  • We used our 7 quart Cuisinart Multicooker to cook this up, but any traditional 6 quart slow cooker or the casserole crock would cook this dish up nicely.
  • We like this spiralizer to make our zoodles for dishes like this.
  • We like to use this low carb marinara sauce in our tomato based dishes to keep carb counts down, but your favorite marinara sauce will work just fine.
  • You can use chicken breasts instead of thighs for this dish, just make sure not to overcook.
  • As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
