Description

A hearty and comforting meal made with chicken thighs, sun-dried tomatoes, and a rich creamy sauce that is perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup spinach
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a crockpot, combine the chicken thighs with the heavy cream, chicken broth, sun-dried tomatoes, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir to ensure the chicken is well coated with the creamy mixture.
  2. Give everything a gentle stir to combine the ingredients fully. This will help the flavors meld beautifully during cooking, ensuring every bite is packed with taste.
  3. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The chicken is done when it is fork-tender and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  4. About 30 minutes before you’re ready to serve, stir in the spinach. It will wilt down beautifully in the flavorful sauce, adding both color and a nutritious boost to the dish. Serve garnished with fresh basil for a burst of freshness.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
