Prepare the chicken by patting it dry with paper towels and sprinkling with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, soy sauce if using, minced garlic, and olive oil until smooth and well combined.
Pour a small amount of the sauce (about 2 tablespoons) into the bottom of the crock pot to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken breasts into the crock pot in a single layer.
Pour the remaining honey mustard sauce over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated.
Set the crock pot to cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken from the crock pot and transfer to a serving platter. If the sauce is too thin, you can transfer it to a saucepan and simmer on the stovetop for 5-7 minutes until thickened.
Drizzle the thickened sauce over the chicken and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm with your favorite sides such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a green salad.
