Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup spinach (fresh or frozen)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Parmesan cheese, for serving Add for an extra touch of flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides, placing them at the bottom of the Crock Pot.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and Italian seasoning. Stir until well mixed.
  3. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken in the Crock Pot. Then, add the spinach on top.
Cooking
  1. Cover the Crock Pot and set it on low for 6-8 hours or on high for about 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Serving
  1. Once cooked, shred the chicken slightly with a fork and stir it into the sauce. Serve hot, sprinkled with Parmesan cheese.

Notes

For a leaner version, substitute heavy cream with Greek yogurt mixed with a little chicken broth, adding it towards the end of cooking to prevent curdling. Avoid overcooking by checking for doneness after 6 hours on low.
