Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Begin by placing 2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts in your slow cooker. Ensure the chicken pieces are not overlapping for even cooking.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, melted salted butter, minced garlic, dried oregano, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper until smooth.
Pour the honey mustard sauce evenly over the chicken, ensuring every piece is coated.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set to LOW for 6 hours.
Once cooked, carefully stir in ½ cup of heavy cream to enhance the sauce’s richness.
Shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker using two forks, mixing it with the creamy sauce.
Serve the warm chicken, accompanied by sides like rice or a fresh green salad.
