Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts skin on or skinless
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp olive oil (can omit if preferred)
  • ½ cup (120ml) white wine + ½ cup water OR 1 cup (240) chicken broth
  • 4 tbsp diced sun-dried tomatoes (drained)
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp chicken bouillon (if you have used wine)
  • 1 cup (225g) sour cream or heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch diluted in 2 tbsp cold water (optional)
  • 2-3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp flat leaf parsley or fresh basil, chopped

Method
 

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and sprinkle Italian seasoning all over.
  2. In a pan or directly in the slow cooker if it has a browning feature, melt the butter with olive oil and cook the chicken skin side down until golden brown.
  3. Flip the chicken breasts and transfer them to the slow cooker if not already there.
  4. Pour in the white wine and water or chicken broth.
  5. Add paprika, garlic granules, chicken bouillon if using wine, and the diced sun-dried tomatoes.
  6. Cover and let the chicken cook on LOW for 90 to 120 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  7. (Optional) Stir in the cornstarch slurry ten minutes before finishing to thicken the sauce, if desired.
  8. Move the chicken to one side and mix in the sour cream or heavy cream thoroughly.
  9. Add grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, stirring everything to combine.
  10. Serve the chicken over your choice of rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • Avoid cooking on HIGH as it may toughen the chicken breasts. Use full-fat sour cream or heavy cream for best results. To thicken the sauce, add the cornstarch slurry or xanthan gum as alternatives. When substituting white wine with broth, include 1 tsp chicken bouillon or half a stock cube. This is a low-carb recipe except for sun-dried tomatoes; replace them with fresh tomatoes if you prefer and serve with cauliflower mash or steamed greens.
