Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup heavy cream
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup carrots, sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup bell peppers, chopped
1/2 cup chicken stock (halal)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add the sliced carrots, broccoli, and bell peppers on top of the chicken.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, minced garlic, onion powder, oregano, and chicken stock.
Pour the cream mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
Ensure chicken breasts are fully submerged in the sauce for maximum tenderness. For a thicker sauce, whisk in a tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with cold water during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
