  1. Load the Slow Cooker
    1. Pat the chicken breasts dry and season both sides with the salt and black pepper. Scatter the mushrooms, onion and garlic across the bottom of the slow cooker and nestle the chicken breasts on top.
    4 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts, 16 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced, 1 piece yellow onion, diced, 4 clove garlic, minced, 1 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp black pepper
  2. 2. Whisk the flour into the chicken broth until smooth, then whisk in the Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Pour over the chicken, dot with the butter and tuck in the thyme sprigs.
    1 cup chicken broth, 3 tbsp all-purpose flour, 6 piece fresh thyme sprigs, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  3. Slow Cook
    3. Cover and cook on LOW for 3 to 4 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 2.5 hours, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) inside and is tender. Avoid overcooking, as breasts dry out quickly.
  4. Finish the Sauce
    4. Remove and discard the thyme stems. Transfer the chicken to a plate and shred or slice it if desired. Stir the heavy cream into the sauce, then return the chicken to the pot.
    0.5 cup heavy cream
  5. 5. Cover and cook on HIGH for 10 more minutes until the sauce is silky and slightly thickened. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  6. 6. Spoon over mashed potatoes or egg noodles and sprinkle with the parsley.
    2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (garnish)
