Slow Cooker Sun Dried Tomato Chicken
Servings: 4
Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup sun dried tomatoes, chopped
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, combine the sun dried tomatoes, chicken broth, cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
Pour the mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure they are well-coated.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
Before serving, give the sauce a good stir to ensure it's well combined. Serve the chicken breasts with the sauce spooned over the top.

Variations & Tips
For a healthier variation, you can use light cream or even Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream. If you prefer a thicker sauce, add a tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with water to the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. You can also add some baby spinach or kale during the last hour of cooking for an extra boost of greens. Feel free to use chicken thighs instead of breasts if you prefer; they will be just as delicious.
