Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup chicken broth (low sodium)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for browning the chicken)
  • Fresh basil or parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. (Optional: Sear in a skillet with olive oil until golden brown for extra flavor.)

  • Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine chicken broth, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.

  • Combine in Crock Pot: Place the chicken in the crock pot and pour the sauce mixture over the top, ensuring the chicken is well coated.

  • Cook:

    • On LOW: Cook for 4-6 hours.
    • On HIGH: Cook for 2-3 hours.
      The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F.

  • Finishing Touches:

    • For a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water and stir it into the sauce. Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes.
    • Garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving.

  • Serve: Serve over mashed potatoes, pasta, or rice with a side of garlic bread.

Notes

  • For a dairy free version: Substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and Parmesan with nutritional yeast.
  • For added flavor: Stir in fresh spinach or sautéed mushrooms during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
