Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • salt and pepper to taste , (I used about ½ teaspoon of each)
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup sweet marsala cooking wine , (may sub chicken broth in a pinch)
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup corn starch
  • fresh parsley, roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Lightly grease your slow cooker with nonstick spray. Season chicken with salt and pepper and place in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  • Top chicken with garlic, mushrooms, and marsala wine. Cover and cook for 5-6 hours on low.
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer chicken to a plate. Whisk together water and cornstarch til dissolved, then pour into slow cooker and stir.
  • Add chicken back to slow cooker, switch heat to high, cover and cook another 20-30 minutes until sauce is thickened. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Notes

Serving suggestion - Serve with rice or mashed potatoes. 
Don't like mushrooms? Leave them out! I do love the flavor they add to the sauce though so I recommend leaving them in large enough pieces that you can just easily pick them out if you don't like them. 
Marsala wine substitute -  chicken broth makes a great substitute.
