Recipe Categories:
Begin by seasoning 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves, 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, and the zest of 1 lemon.
Rub this herb mixture all over the chicken breasts. Place the seasoned chicken in the crockpot. In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup of heavy cream, the juice of 1 lemon, and 2 cloves of minced garlic.
Pour this cream mixture over the chicken in the crockpot. Next, chop 1 pound of baby potatoes in half and add them to the crockpot around the chicken.
Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours, until the chicken is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
Once done, carefully remove the chicken and potatoes from the crockpot. Serve the chicken on a platter, drizzling the lemon-thyme cream sauce over the top.
Garnish with additional fresh thyme sprigs for an elegant presentation. Enjoy your sophisticated meal!
