Instructions
Making Slow Cooker Parmesan Garlic Chicken and Potatoes is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on both sides.
2. Sear the Chicken (optional): In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. This step enhances flavor but can be skipped if you’re short on time.
3. Add Ingredients to Slow Cooker: Place the halved baby potatoes at the bottom of the slow cooker. Lay the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the potatoes.
4. Mix Sauce Ingredients: In a bowl, combine chicken broth, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until well mixed.
5. Pour Sauce Over Chicken: Drizzle the garlic-Parmesan mixture over the chicken and potatoes in the slow cooker, ensuring even coverage.
6. Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
7. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken and potatoes from the slow cooker. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor before serving.
These steps will help you effortlessly create a delightful meal that will impress everyone at the table.
