Ingredients
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
Top the chicken with the chopped sun-dried tomatoes.
In a separate container, whisk together the heavy cream, chicken broth, and parmesan cheese.
Pour the cream mixture over the chicken until mostly submerged.
Cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2.5 hours, until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken to a serving platter.
Whisk the remaining sauce in the crock pot until smooth and emulsified.
Shred or slice the chicken and return it to the pot to coat thoroughly before serving.
Notes
Serve over pasta, mashed potatoes, or with crusty bread to soak up the creamy sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
