Slow Cooker Chicken Marsala

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup of sliced mushrooms
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 cup of Marsala wine
  • 1 cup of chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. This step adds a nice depth of flavor to the dish.
  3. Transfer the seared chicken breasts to your slow cooker. Add the sliced mushrooms, diced onion, and minced garlic on top.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the Marsala wine and chicken broth. Pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours. The chicken should be tender and easily shredded with a fork.
  6. About 30 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry. Stir this mixture into the slow cooker to thicken the sauce.
  7. Once done, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the chicken Marsala over pasta, rice, or alongside some crusty bread.
  8. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving for an extra pop of color!
