This Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes recipe offers a flavorful and easy one-pot meal. Tender chicken breasts and baby potatoes cook slowly in a savory mixture of Parmesan cheese, garlic, and Italian seasoning, making for a comforting and satisfying dinner with minimal effort.


Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Potatoes

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved

Garlic Parmesan Mixture

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (1 tablespoon for greasing, 2 tablespoons for mixture)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Lightly grease the crockpot with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking and to add flavor.
  2. Arrange Ingredients: Place the halved baby potatoes in the bottom of the crockpot and evenly space the chicken breasts on top.
  3. Mix Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful sauce.
  4. Coat Chicken and Potatoes: Pour the Parmesan garlic mixture evenly over the chicken and potatoes, making sure all pieces are well coated to maximize flavor.
  5. Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the dish to add a fresh, vibrant touch. Enjoy your hearty and delicious meal!

Notes

  • For a quicker cook, you can cook on high for 2 to 2.5 hours but monitor to avoid drying out the chicken.
  • Baby potatoes can be substituted with fingerlings or diced larger potatoes if desired.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and texture.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently to maintain moisture.
