Slow Cooker Cajun Chicken Alfredo Recipe

September 15, 2019 by Melissa 45 Comments

Slow Cooker Cajun Chicken Alfredo – this cajun alfredo is absolutely loaded with flavor! Seasoned chicken and smoked sausage in a homemade cajun alfredo sauce.

 Cajun Chicken Alfredo

Cajun Chicken Alfredo

This recipe is a combination of two of my most popular recipes, One Pot Cajun Chicken Alfredo and CrockPot Chicken Alfredo. This slow cooker version is so delicious and sure to be a hit with your family. The smoked sausage and cajun seasoning flavor the chicken and alfredo sauce as it is cooking and gives the dish so many layers of flavor!

The best part is that even the pasta cooks right in the slow cooker.

How to Make Cajun Chicken Alfredo in the Slow Cooker

  1. Start by giving the chicken breasts a quick sear in a pan. Then transfer the juices and chicken breasts to the slow cooker. This step adds just a few minutes, but really helps add more flavor to the pasta.
  2. Next, add sausage, heavy cream, chicken broth and seasonings to the slow cooker.
  3. Cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2-3 hours depending on your slow cooker. Cooking time in the slow cooker varies so much, it’s best to check the temperature of the chicken with a meat thermometer to ensure it has reached 165 degrees. Once the chicken is cooked through, set aside to cool and then slice.
  4. Stir in uncooked pasta. You can use any bite sized shaped pasta.
  5. Finally, stir in freshly grated parmesan cheese and return chicken to slow cooker. Sprinkle with fresh parley and additional seasoning.

    So creamy and delicious! I love the addition of smoked sausage to alfredo and then adding cajun spices? Brilliant! And then to top it off it can be made in the slow cooker! What a time saver!

      Excellent! I added some corn starch to thicken it up because it came out pretty soupy but the flavors are amazing!

    At what point in the recipe do you actually add the sausage? Just at the end with the chicken?

      Hi Amelia!

      I’ve updated the recipe. Cook the sausage along with the chicken so that it can flavor the sauce. Thanks for your question!

    My husband wasn’t keen on the Smoked Sausage but I made the recipe as instructed to do so. It was pure liquid when done and didn’t thicken at all. So I added some cornstarch and poured some of the liquid from the crockpot to a pan and heated it up. Then poured it back into the crockpot. At this time everything in it was done but had to add some more time to it to allow for thickening. What did I do wrong, you think? BTW, we had to leave to go to ministry class however all the kids, Sarah, Britt, JT, Billy, and Emma loved it. It was a hit. For the boys to even like it was a plus in my book. We didn’t get to try the after product but I would just really like to know if any of you have experienced it not thickening if you go by the recipe?

    I managed to mess this up all kinds of ways and it was still delicious. Didn’t have cream so used milk and jar alfredo sauce. Didn’t have cajun spice so had to Google what cajun spice was and use that and a little bit of old bay and paprika for sprinkling. Didn’t have parmesan cheese so used mozzarella lol…we really enjoyed this recipe, thank you.

    Delicious recipe, but I only added one cup of cream and used 1 tablespoon (for more chicken flavor) chicken bouillon granules plus one cup of hot water for the broth. After adding the shredded cheese, the sauce was perfectly creamy! I cooked the pasta separately and drained but didn’t rinse it before adding to the cooker. I used Tony Chachere’s creole seasoning (had it on hand) and would omit the extra half teaspoon of salt next time. Thanks, Melissa!

    For some reason pasta never turns out for me when I cook it in the slow cooker. If I cook the pasta separately, should I omit the water that is added?

    This recipe was PHENOMENAL. My choice of cajun seasoning is Tony’s creole, comes in a green canister, red top. I also threw in mushrooms as an extra filler, but I also add those to everything. Thank you for sharing!!

    I made this tonight for dinner and it was a hit. I honestly didn’t have high expectations as I’ve never cooked a pasta dish in the slow cooker but it turned out perfect. I took out the chicken at 3 hours on low, let it cool a bit and chopped/sliced the chicken and returned it to the crockpot to cook with the pasta and cooked it on high for 30 minutes. I also omitted the 1/2 cup water to get a creamier sauce and added a little red pepper flakes to add a kick and it was perfect.

      I updated the amount of parmesan cheese in the recipe and showed it in oz and cups so it will be clearer. I think that’s why some people were having thinner sauce.

    I and the family loved the flavor and all the ingredients however my end product tonight came out very soupy. Thought it would end up with more of a sauce. I re-read the amounts of liquid ( broth and whipping cream) in the recipe just to make sure I got it right. Will make again – just will cut back on broth and cream. Thanks for the recipe 🙂

    Wow! I made this last night and holy cow, it was PHENOMENAL! Everyone loved it! I made garlic bread to go with it, and the bread dipped in the sauce was soooo good!

    Only thing I changed was the extra water – I left that out because I wanted a thicker sauce. Next time I’m going to try it with chicken thighs instead of breasts (personal preference).

    I made this a few days ago and it was delicious! It was a little more soupy than I would have liked, next time I may not put as much broth. Also, mine did not need any extra salt, the Cajun seasoning was plenty. This was even better leftover!

    Well, this a very adaptable recipe, meaning you can adjust to your families taste. We don’t care for Cajun food but do like smoked flavor. I used smoked paprika, fresh basil and a pinch (healthy) of chilli flakes for pop and pepper, no salt because I’m On a low salt diet.(enough salt in sausage.) I used rotissere chicken and threw everything in slow cooker. Turned out great.

    I haven’t made this yet, but I’m trying it tonight and can’t wait! I usually cook most of my crockpot meals that have chicken on low for about 8 hours. Then chicken is super tender easy to shred. Will everything else in this recipe be okay if it cooks for that long? Thank you!
