Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 cups frozen corn kernels

1 cup diced bell peppers (mix of red and green for color)

1 small onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk for a dairy-free option

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: Cooked rice or crusty bread, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and thyme.

    Add Vegetables: Layer the frozen corn, diced bell peppers, chopped onion, and minced garlic on top of the chicken.

      Pour in the Broth: Carefully add the chicken broth to the pot, ensuring that the chicken and vegetables are submerged but not completely drowning them.

        Cook: Cover the crockpot and set it to low for 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours. Cooking on low is preferred for maximum flavor and tenderness.

          Finish with Cream: About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the heavy cream or coconut milk, mixing thoroughly to combine. Cover and let it cook on low for an additional 30 minutes to thicken slightly.

            Shred the Chicken: After the cooking time is complete, remove the chicken and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken back to the crockpot and give it a good stir to combine with the creamy sauce.

              Serve: Ladle the creamy chicken and corn mixture over cooked rice or alongside crusty bread. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.

                Enjoy: Serve hot, enjoy the creamy, comforting goodness, and watch it disappear quickly at the dinner table!
