Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a 6-quart or larger slow cooker.

Notes
- Tips for Best Texture: To prevent mushy noodles, add them only for the last 15-20 minutes of cooking, or cook them separately on the stovetop and add to individual bowls just before serving.
- Flavor Boost: For deeper flavor, consider a quick sear of the chicken breasts in a hot pan before adding them to the slow cooker.
