Instructions

Creating Crockpot Cajun Butter Chicken is simple and straightforward. Follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot.
2. Add Butter: Cut the unsalted butter into chunks and distribute them evenly over the chicken.
3. Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Then, pour them into the crockpot.
4. Season: Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt over the chicken and vegetables.
5. Add Liquids: Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, ensuring the ingredients are well combined.
6. Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
7. Shred Chicken: Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot, mixing it with the sauce.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top for added flavor and color.
9. Serve: Stir everything well and let it cook for an additional 10-15 minutes on low before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll create a delicious and satisfying meal with minimal effort.
