Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Season the boneless chicken thighs with salt and pepper, ensuring even coverage to enhance flavor. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown, then transfer it to the crockpot.
  2. Sauté chopped onion and minced garlic over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add the sautéed mixture to the crockpot on top of the chicken.
  3. Slice your favorite mushrooms and low-carb veggies like zucchini or spinach. Add them to the crockpot, distributing them evenly over the chicken.
  4. Combine Marsala wine and heavy cream in a bowl, then pour the mixture over the chicken and veggies in the crockpot.
  5. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours. It's ready when the chicken is tender.
  6. About 15 minutes before serving, check the sauce's consistency and uncover for thickening if needed. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and parmesan cheese before serving.
