Description

Delicious and easy crock pot foil-wrapped potatoes cooked to tender perfection, seasoned with garlic, rosemary, and olive oil. This slow-cooked recipe yields flavorful potatoes ideal as a comforting side dish, perfect for any meal without heating up your kitchen.


Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 6 medium potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold)

Seasoning Mix

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp dried rosemary (or fresh sprigs)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Others

  • Aluminum foil


Instructions

  1. Prepare Potatoes: Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris from the skin.
  2. Prick Potatoes: Use a fork to prick each potato several times to allow steam to escape during cooking.
  3. Mix Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful seasoning mixture.
  4. Season Potatoes: Rub each potato evenly with the prepared olive oil and seasoning mixture, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
  5. Wrap Potatoes: Tightly wrap each potato individually in aluminum foil to lock in moisture and flavors.
  6. Arrange in Crock Pot: Place the foil-wrapped potatoes in a single layer inside the crock pot to ensure even cooking.
  7. Cook: Cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, or on high heat for 3 to 4 hours until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  8. Serve: Carefully unwrap the potatoes and serve hot. Optionally, top with sour cream, cheese, or chives for added taste.

Notes

  • Choose medium-sized potatoes for even cooking.
  • You can substitute dried rosemary with fresh sprigs for a more aromatic flavor.
  • Adjust seasoning quantities to your taste preference.
  • Handling the foil-wrapped potatoes requires caution as they will be hot after cooking.
  • Leftover cooked potatoes can be refrigerated and reheated later.
