Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot, ensuring they are spread evenly.
- Whisk together the heavy cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.
- Pour the creamy mixture over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well covered.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 360-420 minutes or on high for 180-240 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Shred the chicken in the sauce using two forks and stir well to coat.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Notes
Heavy cream adds richness to the sauce, but you can substitute with half-and-half for a lighter option. If you’re short on time, pre-minced garlic works in a pinch.
