Slow Cooker Chicken Alfredo

Creamy and cheesy slow cooker chicken alfredo takes only a few minutes of prep for an effortless low-carb meal.

I can guarantee the flavors of this sauce will satisfy any pasta alfredo cravings you have, but without the carbs. This chicken alfredo recipe isn't only low carb, but gluten free as well when served over zoodles.

Standing over the stove after a long day whisking alfredo sauce isn't my idea of fun. Making this dish in the crockpot takes away so much of the work, time, and dirty dishes. The only thing you have to do is plate it up, and your family is sure to love it!

I always like to make a bigger batch when cooking in the crockpot. This way I can have the leftovers for lunch over the next few days. It only takes a couple of minutes to warm up the chicken and sauce on the stove or in the microwave, and lunch is served!

Tips to Make Slow Cooker Chicken Alfredo

To keep this recipe low carb the chicken is served over zoodles, but you could also pair it with any vegetable of you choosing. Broccoli always goes well with chicken alfredo, as well as Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Cauliflower.
