Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Seasonings

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon minced onion
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Sauce

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup sundried tomatoes, oil drained

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Place the chicken breasts into the slow cooker. Add the minced garlic, minced onion, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning evenly over the chicken.
  2. Make Sauce Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the chicken broth until fully dissolved, then pour this mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker.

  4. Cook: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on the low setting for 8 hours to ensure tender and flavorful chicken.
  5. Serve: Once cooking is complete, serve the chicken with the creamy sauce over your choice of rice, mashed potatoes, noodles, or vegetables for a comforting meal.
