Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with Italian seasoning, undrained
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken dry and season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer chicken to your slow cooker.
  3. In the same skillet, add the diced tomatoes (undrained) and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  4. Stir in the softened cream cheese until melted and smooth.
  5. Add the Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, sun-dried tomatoes, and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir until well combined.
  6. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
  8. Shred or slice the chicken in the sauce before serving.
  9. Serve hot over pasta or rice.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, you can remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking on high.
  • This dish pairs wonderfully with your favorite pasta or fluffy rice.
  • Consider this recipe for your meal planning, as it makes excellent leftovers.
