Description

A flavorful and easy-to-make Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes recipe that combines tender chicken breasts with seasoned baby potatoes slow-cooked to perfection in a rich garlic parmesan sauce. This comforting dish is perfect for busy weeknights and offers a delicious, hands-off meal with minimal prep.

Ingredients

Chicken and Potatoes

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved

Garlic Parmesan Sauce

  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, and crushed red pepper flakes if using to create the flavorful garlic parmesan sauce.
  2. Layer the Potatoes: Place the halved baby potatoes evenly in the bottom of the crockpot, creating a solid base layer for even cooking.
  3. Add the Chicken: Arrange the boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs on top of the layer of potatoes in the crockpot.
  4. Coat with Sauce: Pour the prepared garlic parmesan sauce over the chicken and potatoes, gently tossing or spreading it to ensure everything is evenly coated with the flavorful mixture.
  5. Slow Cook: Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on LOW heat setting for 6 to 7 hours or on HIGH setting for 3 to 4 hours until the chicken is fully cooked through and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the dish to add freshness and color, enhancing both flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken thighs for chicken breasts if you prefer a juicier and more flavorful meat.
  • If you don’t have fresh parsley, dried parsley can be used, but add it at the end of cooking instead of as a garnish.
  • Crushed red pepper flakes are optional but add a nice gentle heat; omit if you prefer a milder dish.
  • Ensure potatoes are cut evenly to allow them to cook uniformly.
  • Check the chicken and potatoes towards the end of cooking time to avoid overcooking, as slow cookers can vary.
