A flavorful, low-carb dish made with chicken, garlic, and Parmesan cheese that’s cooked to perfection in a slow cooker.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (about 1.5 to 2 lbs)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
  • 23 cloves garlic, minced
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts or thighs at the bottom of the slow cooker. Searing is optional but can add flavor.
  2. Whisk together melted butter, grated Parmesan, heavy cream, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes in a bowl. Stir in minced garlic.
  3. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 240-360 minutes or high for 120-180 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  5. Remove the chicken and serve whole or shredded, garnished with chopped parsley.
  6. Optional: For a thicker sauce, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes of cooking or broil briefly to toast the cheese.

Notes

For added richness, include a splash of lemon juice or zest before serving. Adjust red pepper flakes to increase heat.
