Equipment

  • GreenPan Slow Cooker
  • Instant Read Thermometer

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts skin on or skinless
  • 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil can omit if preferred
  • ½ cup white wine or 1 cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup water or 1 cup chicken broth
  • 4 tablespoon diced sun-dried tomatoes drained
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic granules
  • 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon if using wine
  • 1 cup sour cream or heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch diluted in 2 tablespoon cold water (optional)
  • 2-3 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoon flat leaf parsley or fresh basil, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the dried Italian herbs.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a pan or directly in the slow cooker. Pan fry, skin side down, until golden.
  • Turn the chicken breasts over and pour in the wine or chicken broth. Season with paprika, garlic granules and add the sun-dried tomatoes.
  • Cover and cook on the LOW setting for 90 mins - 2 hours or until the chicken registers internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  • Optional: make a cornstarch slurry by mixing it with a little cold water and stir into the sauce ten minutes before cooking time is over.
  • Pile the chicken to one side and stir in the sour cream or heavy cream until incorporated. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
  • Serve the chicken over rice or noodles, with mashed potatoes or however you like!

Notes

I would not advise you to cook this recipe on the high setting as it can make the chicken breasts a little tough. Use full-fat sour cream or heavy cream. You can add the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce if desired.
