Instructions

Lightly season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a bowl, whisk together chicken broth, heavy cream, Parmesan, garlic, oregano, thyme, and red pepper flakes.
Place chicken breasts in the crockpot and pour the sauce mixture evenly over them.
Add the sun-dried tomatoes on top.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours or HIGH for 2 hours, until the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
During the last 30 minutes, stir in butter to make the sauce extra smooth and creamy.
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving.

Notes

Substitute half-and-half for heavy cream for a lighter sauce.

Add a splash of white wine before cooking for a restaurant-style flavor.

For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream and nutritional yeast instead of cream and Parmesan.

If the sauce is too thick, add a little chicken broth; if too thin, let it cook uncovered for 10–15 minutes.

Serve with pasta, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
