If you are looking for more ways to make chicken breasts in your slow cooker, then this recipe is a must-try! Also, try my Olive Garden Chicken or Buffalo Chicken.

This is a recipe that I have been tweaking over the years. My recent change is the addition of heavy cream to the recipe. It mellows out the flavors and helps make a wonderful decadent sauce.

Recipe Ingredients

  • Chicken – boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • Butter – melted salted butter for butter makes everything better.
  • Seasonings – garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano
  • Worcestershire sauce – this is the secret ingredient!
  • Heavy Cream – mellows out the sauce (Add this AFTER the cooking time is up). 
  • Step One – In a small bowl, mix the sauce ingredients (wait to add the heavy Cream).
  • Step Two – Add the chicken breasts to the slow cooker, and pour over the. 
  • Step Three – Place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on LOW for 6 hours without opening the top during the cooking time.
  • Step Four – When the cooking time is done, add the heavy Cream. Shred the chicken with two forks and stir. Serve and enjoy!
