Creamy Angel Chicken Pasta

If there’s one dish my kids can all agree on, it’s this Creamy Angel Chicken Pasta. Imagine tender chicken nestled in a velvety cream cheese sauce, lightly seasoned with Italian herbs, then tossed with delicate angel hair noodles. It’s the kind of comfort food that tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen—but really, it comes together while you’re catching up on your favorite show.

I first discovered this recipe at a church potluck back in 2015, and I’ve been perfecting it ever since. (Insider tip: use cream cheese with chives—it’s a total game changer.)
