🕒 Prep Time: 15 min | Cook Time: 6–7 hrs (low) or 3–4 hrs (high) | Total Time: 6–7 hrs 15 min

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Season the Chicken:
   Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Add Liquids:
   Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Drizzle with olive oil and stir in Dijon mustard. This builds that rich creamy base. 😋
3. Slow Cook:
   Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until chicken is tender and fully cooked.
4. Add Broccoli:
   About 30 minutes before serving, add in the fresh broccoli florets. Stir gently so everything blends nicely.
5. Shred Chicken:
   Use two forks to shred the cooked chicken directly in the crockpot.
6. Cheese It Up:
   Add in shredded cheddar and Parmesan. Stir until everything melts into a creamy, dreamy sauce. 🧀✨
7. Serve:
   Spoon into bowls and top with extra cheese if you’re feeling indulgent. Serve warm!

Pro Tips:

• Meal Prep Winner: This reheats beautifully for lunches—just store in airtight containers.
• Swap Tip: Sub with frozen broccoli if you’re in a pinch—just add it 45 min before serving.
• Extra Creamy: Add a splash of milk if your sauce thickens too much while cooling.
