Step-by-Step Instructions

  2. In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken breasts and brown them for about 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Using a cutting board, roughly chop the onion, celery, and carrots, then mince the garlic cloves finely.
  4. Layer the browned chicken in the bottom of the crockpot, then pour in the chopped vegetables.
  5. Cover the crockpot and set it to low heat for 6 hours.
  6. After cooking, remove the chicken breasts from the crockpot and cover them with foil.
  7. Once rested, shred the chicken using two forks, breaking it into bite-sized pieces.
  8. Ladle the creamy Parmesan Chicken Crockpot Soup into bowls, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
