A creamy and flavorful garlic Parmesan chicken dish cooked in a crockpot for easy preparation and a hearty meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Transfer the seared chicken to the crockpot, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- In a bowl, whisk together chicken broth, heavy cream, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour the mixture over the chicken in the crockpot, ensuring they are mostly submerged.

- Sprinkle chopped parsley before serving for garnish.
Notes
Searing chicken locks in juices and enhances flavor. Adjust seasoning and consistency to personal taste. Pair with mashed potatoes, garlic bread, or salad.
