Categories     Main Course

Total Time 255 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 240 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 6 thighs)
1 shallot (chopped, about 1/2 cup)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup chopped sun dried tomatoes (not in oil)
1/3 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cups fresh spinach (chopped)
grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet on the stove over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, add the chicken thighs. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Brown on both sides, 2-4 minutes per side.
  • Transfer chicken to the slow cooker.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the shallot to the pan. Saute, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add the garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
  • Pour the chicken broth into the pan and cook for 1 minutes, gently scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Turn off the heat.
  • Transfer the contents of the pan to the slow cooker.
  • Add the Italian seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and sun dried tomatoes to the slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on high heat for 2-2.5 hours or low for 4-5 hours, until chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cream and cornstarch. Stir it into the slow cooker, along with the spinach. Cook for 5 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thickened.
  • Serve with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
