Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once sizzling, add 1 diced yellow onion and 2 minced garlic cloves, sautéing until fragrant and the onion becomes translucent—about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully transfer the sautéed onion and garlic into a slow cooker, scraping in any buttery bits from the skillet.
Add 1 pound of cubed boneless, skinless chicken breasts, along with 3 cups of frozen mixed vegetables. Pour in 1 can each of cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soup, followed by 1 cup of milk. Sprinkle in 2 teaspoons of chicken bouillon granules, 1 teaspoon of paprika, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on Low for 6-7 hours or on High for 3-4 hours.
About 30 minutes before serving, uncover the slow cooker and stir in 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and 1 package (around 9 ounces) of cheese tortellini. Mix well and ensure the tortellini is submerged in the sauce.
Once everything is cooked to creamy perfection, serve your Crockpot Cheddar Chicken Pot Pie Tortellini warm, garnishing with fresh parsley or additional cheese if desired.
