Instructions

How to Make Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes

  • Begin by washing and halving your baby potatoes for an easy bite-sized treat. Don’t forget to mince the garlic for that aromatic flavor!
  • Generously rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Feel free to sprinkle in some red pepper flakes for a spicy kick if desired!
  • Place the halved potatoes at the bottom of the crockpot, creating a cozy bed for the chicken. Then, lay the seasoned chicken breasts right on top.
  • Carefully pour the chicken broth over the layered ingredients, ensuring the flavors meld beautifully during cooking.
  • Scatter minced garlic evenly across the chicken and finish with a generous sprinkle of parmesan cheese for that delightful cheesy crust.
  • Cover your crockpot and set it on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours. Cook until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are fork-tender.
  • Gently remove the chicken and potatoes from the crockpot. Drizzle the luscious sauce resting at the bottom over the top for an extra flavor boost!
  • Optionally, chop fresh parsley for a vibrant finishing touch that brightens up your dish.

Notes

Optional: Serve with a crisp green salad or crusty bread for a complete meal. Use a crockpot liner to make cleanup a breeze.
