Creamy Crock Pot Chicken and Noodles RecipeOne of the most common problems with boneless and skinless chicken is that they can be dry and tasteless. This is because a lot of the flavor resides in the fat in the skin of the chicken. As the fat cooks, it penetrates the flesh of the chicken and gives it amazing flavor. Chicken fat, however, is high in cholesterol and is not the healthiest food around. Taking out the skin lessens considerable calories. To make the chicken moist and flavorful in this recipe, it is cooked in a flavorful chicken broth with the fat skimmed off. You can get fat-free chicken broth in can or cartons in grocery stores. Low-fat cream of chicken soup is also used in this recipe, tripling the flavor of the chicken. The meal is so flavorful you no longer need to add salt to it, although you can add a dash of pepper to give it a bit of spice and aroma.
