Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 4 pieces Chicken Breasts Substitute with chicken thighs for added tenderness.
For the Sauce
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese Use freshly grated.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream or Dairy Alternative Coconut cream works for a dairy-free version.
For Flavor
  • 4 cloves Garlic Use freshly minced for best flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon Herbs (e.g., Italian seasoning) Feel free to use fresh herbs if available.
  • 1 cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes
For Cooking
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth Ensure gluten-free if required.

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by seasoning your chicken breasts with salt and pepper, ensuring every piece is coated evenly.
  2. Place the seasoned chicken breasts into the crockpot, arranging them in a single layer. Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and minced garlic, layering over the chicken. Pour in chicken broth until it covers the chicken halfway.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix heavy cream with freshly grated Parmesan cheese until well combined. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the crockpot.
  4. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to low heat. Cook for approximately 4 to 5 hours.
  5. For a thicker sauce, whisk together a cornstarch slurry and add it to the crockpot in the last 30 minutes.
  6. Serve warm, spooning the creamy sauce over the chicken and pairing it with sides like garlic mashed potatoes or a crisp green salad.

Notes

Don’t skip seasoning the chicken before cooking; this is crucial for flavor. Use freshly grated Parmesan for a smoother sauce, and avoid peeking at the crockpot while cooking.
