minutesIngredients
1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
0.5 cup heavy cream
0.5 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
0.5 cup grated parmesan cheese
8 ounces sundried tomatoes
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper
Directions
- Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Make sure both sides are evenly coated for optimal flavor.
- In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Sear the chicken breasts until browned, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
- Place the seared chicken in the bottom of the Crockpot. This will be the base layer of your dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together heavy cream, chicken broth, garlic powder, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Pour over the chicken.
- Add the grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken, ensuring it is evenly distributed to enhance the dish’s creamy texture.
- Top the mixture with sundried tomatoes. Cover the Crockpot with the lid, setting it to cook on low for 4 hours.
- After 4 hours, remove the chicken from the Crockpot. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving to seal in its juices.
- Serve the chicken warm, garnished with additional Parmesan or fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy as a main dish with your choice of sides.
