Ingredients
Scale
Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Sauce:
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Garnish:
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2–3 minutes per side until golden (optional for extra flavor).
- Prepare the Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together chicken broth, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
- Cook in Crock Pot: Place the chicken in the crock pot and pour the sauce over it. Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours until chicken is tender.
- Thicken the Sauce: Remove the lid for the last 30 minutes if you prefer a thicker sauce.
- Serve: Serve with mashed potatoes, pasta, or rice, and garnish with fresh basil or parsley.
Notes
- You can use boneless chicken thighs for a juicier result.
- If you want the sauce extra creamy, stir in a bit more Parmesan just before serving.
