Categories     Main Course

Time 3h35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 3 breasts)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 medium shallot or 1/2 small yellow onion (finely chopped)
2 cloves minced garlic
1 cup dry Marsala wine (not cooking wine)
8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
1 tablespoon cornstarch (mixed with 2 tablespoons water to create a slurry)
For serving: chopped fresh parsley or basil
For serving: whole wheat pasta (zucchini noodles, or simply a big loaf of crusty bread)

Steps:

  • Lightly coat a large slow cooker with nonstick spray. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium high. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the chicken in a single layer. Cook on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes, until browned, moving the chicken as little as possible so that it gets a nice sear. Flip and brown on the other side, about 2 additional minutes. It does not need to be cooked all the way through. Transfer the chicken to the slow cooker.
  • Reduce the skillet heat to medium low. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic.
  • While the skillet is still warm, pour in the Marsala. Increase the heat to medium and let simmer 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Scatter the mushrooms over the top of the chicken. Pour in the Marsala reduction. Cover and let cook on LOW, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours on low (timing will vary based on your slow cooker model and the size of your chicken breasts). Remove to a plate and cover to keep warm.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water. Pour into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH for 15 to 20 minutes, until thickened. Return the chicken to the slow cooker and let heat over high for 5 additional minutes to warm through. Serve hot with desired accompaniments, with the sauce spooned over the top and a sprinkle of fresh parsley as desired.
