The BEST dressing! Pour 16oz on 1.5 pounds of chicken… it will NOT completely cover the chicken.

I did flip the chicken about 2 hours in… then poured the sauce and the chunks of cream cheese on top of the chicken. I think this keeps the chicken moist.

Went with a higher end pasta for this dish. I did make 2 bags so the family could have pasta in a couple of days. Cook the pasta while you shred the chicken.
