Description

A comforting dish where tender chicken is infused with a rich garlic and buttery sauce, making it perfect for cozy family dinners or special occasions.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1/4 cup minced garlic
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken by placing it in your Crockpot in a single layer.
  2. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it shimmers.
  3. Sauté the minced garlic in the melted butter for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Mix in the chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Combine the mixture with the chicken in the Crockpot and cover it, cooking on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
  6. Shred the chicken with two forks right in the sauce after cooking.
  7. Serve the chicken over rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes, garnished with fresh parsley.
