Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts (skinless or skin-on)
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup white wine + ½ cup water OR 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp flat-leaf parsley or fresh basil (chopped)
  • 4 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes (diced and drained)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 2-3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp chicken bouillon (if using wine)
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water (optional)
  • 1 tsp olive oil (optional)
  • 1 cup sour cream or heavy cream

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Cooking
  1. In a pan, melt the butter and add the seasoned chicken breasts. Sear each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes each.
  2. Place the chicken in the crock pot. Add garlic granules, sun-dried tomatoes, white wine (or chicken broth), and chicken bouillon.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, ensuring the chicken is tender and flavorful.
  4. Stir in sour cream and Parmesan cheese. If desired, thicken the sauce with cornstarch mixed with cold water.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil before serving.

Notes

Add more garlic or herbs for extra depth of flavor. Customize by swapping in other vegetables like spinach or roasted red peppers. A fresh salad or steamed veggies makes a great side.
