Preparation
  1. In the slow cooker, whisk together chicken broth, garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, and a tablespoon of oil from the sun-dried tomato jar.
  2. Place whole chicken breasts into the slow cooker, ensuring they are partially submerged in the liquid.
Slow Cooking
  1. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours until chicken is tender.
Finishing the Sauce
  1. Stir in heavy cream, grated parmesan, and julienned sun-dried tomatoes. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes until the sauce is thick and orange-hued.
  2. Top with freshly chopped parsley and cracked black pepper before serving.

Notes

Use the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar for extra flavor.
Low heat is preferred to keep the chicken breasts from drying out.
