Notes
- Shred the chicken while it’s hot because it’s much easier to do so. Use two forms or a hand mixer.
- If you notice that the sauce has thickened too much, stir in a splash of warm chicken stock.
- Don’t drain the Rotel because the liquid flavors the dish and helps cook the pasta.
- To double, scale all ingredients, use a 6–8 quart slow cooker, and add a few extra minutes to the pasta cook time.
