Whether you prefer the ease of a crock pot or the speed of oven baking, this low-calorie recipe requires minimal prep while delivering maximum taste.

Spray the inside of your crock pot or a baking dish with a light coating of cooking spray.
Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in the crock pot or baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, white wine, chicken broth, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well to mix the flavors together.
Pour the garlic-wine mixture over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is well-coated.
If using a crock pot, cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender. If using the oven, preheat it to 375°F (190°C), cover the baking dish with foil, and bake for 50-60 minutes, checking for doneness.
Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a serving plate and spoon some of the cooking juices over the top for added flavor.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve with steamed vegetables or a side of your choice for a complete meal.
