Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, in oil, drained and chopped (if using dry-packed, rehydrate in warm water for 10 minutes)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (can use half-and-half for a lighter sauce; sauce will be thinner)
  • 1 cup chicken broth (low-sodium preferred)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your Crock Pot in an even layer.
  2. In a bowl, combine the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, heavy cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Pour the creamy tomato mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and pulls apart easily with a fork.
  5. Remove the chicken to a plate, stir the sauce to combine, and spoon it over the chicken when serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute canned coconut milk (full fat) and reduce the broth slightly. Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches safe internal temperature. Adjust salt and pepper before serving as needed.
