Hi there, food lover! 👋 Ready to fall in love at first bite? This creamy, dreamy Marry Me Chicken made in the crockpot is so irresistibly delicious, it just might seal the deal! 💍🍗 Perfect for cozy dinners or impressing someone special, and guess what?

Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Sauce:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes (optional, for a little heat)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes (drained and chopped)
  • Fresh basil, for garnish

Directions:

  1. Season the Chicken: Rub chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  2. Sear for Flavor: (Optional but recommended) In a skillet over medium heat, sear chicken in olive oil for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden. This locks in flavor!
  3. Layer in Crockpot: Place the chicken in the crockpot. In a bowl, mix together the cream, chicken broth, Parmesan, chili flakes, oregano, thyme, and sun-dried tomatoes.
  4. Cook Slowly: Pour the sauce over the chicken. Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2.5–3 hours until chicken is tender and cooked through.
  5. Thicken (if needed): If you want a thicker sauce, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh basil and serve over pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice.
