A creamy and flavorful chicken dish made effortlessly in a slow cooker, perfect for a comforting meal.
Prepare the chicken by patting it dry with paper towels.
Drying the chicken helps it brown better and prevents excess moisture in the slow cooker.
Melt the butter in a saucepan and lightly brown the chicken on both sides.
Browning the chicken adds a depth of flavor to the dish.
Place the chicken in the slow cooker.
Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer for even cooking.
In the same saucepan, sauté the chopped onion until translucent.
Cooking the onion enhances its sweetness and flavor.
Combine the cream cheese, wine, cream of mushroom soup, garlic powder, and black pepper in the saucepan. Heat until smooth.
Stir constantly to prevent the sauce from sticking to the pan.
Pour the sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker.
Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours.
Avoid opening the lid during cooking to maintain the temperature.
Serve the chicken with the sauce over your choice of side dish.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
