Method
 

Directions
  1. In a crockpot, mix together chicken stock, diced onion, Dijon mustard, honey, unsalted butter, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, dried oregano, black pepper, and coarse kosher salt. Stir until well combined!
  2. Place the skinless chicken breasts in the crockpot, ensuring they’re coated generously with the delicious sauce.
  3. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours. Check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safety and tenderness.
  4. Once cooked, shred the chicken using two forks or a mixer with wire beaters for an easy alternative.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream until fully combined, then garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
