Instructions
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Add the chicken to the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side. You want your chicken to be golden brown on both sides. Place the seared chicken in the crockpot.
To the crockpot, add 1 medium finely diced shallot, 3 teaspoons minced garlic, 1 cup Marsala wine, 1 cup chicken broth, and 8 ounces sliced mushrooms. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours or on HIGH for 2 hours. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees. Remove the chicken to a plate and cover to keep warm.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cold water and 2 tablespoons cornstarch to make a slurry.
Pour the slurry into the crockpot and stir. Cook on HIGH for 15-20 minutes, until the sauce is thickened. Return the chicken to the crockpot and cook for an additional 5 minutes to warm the chicken through. Serve over pasta or potatoes and top with fresh parsley as a garnish.
