The Preparation

24 ounces whole white button mushrooms

1 pound raw chicken tenders

3 cloves garlic

½ teaspoon dried basil

½ teaspoon dried oregano

¼ teaspoon dried thyme

2 bay leaves

1 cup chicken broth

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons butter

¼ cup heavy whipping cream

8 slices bacon, cooked and chopped

¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

The Execution

Wash all of the mushrooms. I like to take the stems off of the larger ones, but I also include them. Cut all of the chicken tenders into bite size pieces.

Place the mushrooms into the slow cooker.

Add the chicken, basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, bay leaves, and chicken broth. Season well with salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 3-4 hours on the low setting.

Mix in the two tablespoons of butter, and heavy whipping cream. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if needed.

Serve with crumbled bacon and parsley.
