Cooking Steps
  1. In a 5-quart or larger slow cooker, stir together garlic, bell pepper, onion, tomatoes, chicken, broth, ? cup cheese, basil, oregano, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook on low for 7-1/2 hours or on high for 3-1/2 hours.
  2. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and use forks to coarsely shred; return to slow cooker. Stir in pasta. Cook on high for 20-30 minutes longer or until pasta is cooked al dente.
