  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese Adds richness
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese Provides nuttiness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Begin by placing the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the CrockPot. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken.
  • Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, salt, and black pepper evenly over the chicken.
  • Pour the prepared Alfredo sauce over the spiced chicken, ensuring it's fully covered.
  • Add the chicken broth into the CrockPot and combine it gently with the Alfredo sauce.

Cooking

  • Cover the CrockPot and set it on low heat for about 4 to 5 hours.
  • Once the cooking time is up, shred the chicken directly in the pot using two forks.
  • Stir in the refrigerated cheese tortellini and let it cook for an additional 15 to 20 minutes on high heat.
  • Mix in the frozen peas, allowing them to warm through for just a few minutes.

Serving

  • Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar and grated Parmesan cheese on top, allowing it to melt into the warm dish.
  • Garnish with chopped parsley for a refreshing touch.
  • Serve using a large spoon, ensuring everyone gets a bit of everything on their plate.

Notes

Serve with crusty bread for soaking up the creamy sauce. Can be reheated for leftovers.
