Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (optional, for thickening)

Instructions:
- Prepare the Slow Cooker:
