The Best Slow Cooker Million Dollar Chicken Recipe

This indulgent, creamy chicken dish is impossibly easy and absolutely delicious.

Ingredients (Serves 6)

For the Chicken:

4-6 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on for best flavor) OR boneless skinless
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons butter

For the Sauce:

8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a little heat)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

For the Topping (Optional but Amazing!):

½ cup crispy bacon, crumbled
¼ cup green onions or fresh parsley, chopped

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Season & Sear the Chicken

Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear chicken for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown (this adds flavor!).
Transfer chicken to the slow cooker.

2. Make the Creamy Sauce

In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes.
Stir in mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Pour over the chicken in the slow cooker.

3. Slow Cook to Perfection

Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours.
The chicken will be fall-apart tender and the sauce will be thick and creamy.

4. Add Crispy Toppings (Optional but Highly Recommended!)

Sprinkle with crispy bacon crumbles and chopped green onions.
For an extra cheesy crust, sprinkle with more mozzarella and broil for 2 minutes!

5. Serve & Enjoy!

Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option!

Tips for the Best Million Dollar Chicken

✅ Use chicken thighs – They stay juicier and more flavorful in the slow cooker.
✅ Sear the chicken first – It adds a golden, crispy crust and deep flavor.
✅ Let the sauce thicken – If needed, let the slow cooker sit uncovered for 10 minutes before serving.
✅ For extra richness – Add a splash of heavy cream in the last 30 minutes.
✅ Make it crispy – Broil with cheese and bacon for a golden, bubbly crust!
