Keto Chicken Marsala Crockpot

– Heat a pan over medium heat, add butter/oil and brown the chicken breasts on both sides (about 3 minutes per side). Remove and set aside. – On the same pan, add little more oil and saute the mushrooms for a few minutes (the above two steps are totally optional, but recommended to give it more creamy flavor) – Grease the butter/olive oil to the base of the slow cooker. Add the browned chicken (or raw) to the bottom of the pot.

How To Serve

Just because of enough creamy sauce I like to serve it over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles, or roasted/steamed broccoli and enjoy this low carb dish.
