Instructions
Prepare the sauce. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chicken broth, milk, chicken bouillon, minced onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Microwave for 3-4 minutes then whisk to combine the chicken bouillon.
Combine the ingredients. Place chicken thighs into the slow cooker. Pour the sauce on top. Cover. Cook on high for 2-4 hours (thawed chicken) 4-6 hours (semi-frozen chicken) or low for 6-8 hours (thawed chicken only).
Shred the chicken. Once cooked, shred the chicken or dice into bite-sized pieces. If you'd like to thicken the sauce, whisk 1/4 - 1/2 cup potato flakes into the sauce in the slow cooker.
Add noodles and vegetables. Add cooked egg noodles and steamed broccoli. Serve.
