In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper.
Drizzle the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over them.
Pour the chicken broth around the chicken in the crock pot, ensuring that the liquid does not completely cover the chicken.

Once done, carefully remove the chicken from the crock pot using tongs.
Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
