Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 4 large breasts or 6 small breasts)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 cup Holland House Marsala Cooking Wine
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- fresh parsley for garnish
- Pasta, rice, bread or potatoes for serving
Instructions
- Season both sides of chicken breasts with thyme, oregano, salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken in a single layer. Cook on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes, until brown, flip and brown on the other side, about 2 additional minutes. The chicken does not need to be cooked all the way through. Note: If using the Crock-Pot Express Cooker, use the sauté function for this step to brown the chicken on both sides.
- Transfer the chicken to the pot of a slow cooker.
- Top with mushrooms and garlic.
- Pour the marsala cooking wine over the ingredients.
- Cover with the lid and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or HIGH for 2 to 3 hours. Chicken is done when internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and transfer to a plate.
- Whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and add to the slow cooker. Pour in the heavy cream. Cook on HIGH for 15 minutes, or until thickened.
- Return the chicken to the slow cooker and let heat for5 minutes to warm through.
- Serve with pasta, rice, bread or potatoes. Garnish with parsley and enjoy!
