Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Place the chicken in the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  3. Place the chicken breasts, garlic, wine, chicken broth and mushrooms in the slow cooker.
  4. Cook on LOW for 5 hours.
  5. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker. Whisk together the cornstarch with 1/3 cup cold water. Pour the cornstarch into the slow cooker and stir to combine.

Notes

  • If you're really pressed for time, you can skip browning the chicken breasts, but I highly recommend taking the time to brown them!
  • You can use boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts if you prefer.
  • Adapted from Creme de la Crumb
  • Stove top instructions: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Add the chicken to the pan and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and cover with foil to keep warm. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Add the marsala wine and chicken broth to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch that's been mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water. Simmer until just thickened. Stir in the cream and simmer for 2 more minutes. Add the chicken back to the pan and spoon the sauce over the top. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
