Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 tablespoons minced garlic (about 6-8 cloves)

1 cup chicken broth

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)

1 cup fresh spinach leaves (optional, for added nutrition)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

    Combine Ingredients: In your slow cooker, whisk together the heavy cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, and crushed red pepper flakes until well mixed.

      Add Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts into the slow cooker, making sure they’re submerged in the creamy mixture.

        Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

          Add Spinach: About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the fresh spinach leaves, allowing them to wilt into the sauce.

            Finalize: Once cooked, shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker and stir to combine with the creamy garlic sauce.

              Serve: Serve your creamy garlic Parmesan chicken over pasta, rice, or with a side of crusty bread, and garnish with fresh parsley.
