Description

This Irresistible Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken is a comforting and flavorful one-pot meal that combines tender chicken breasts with baby potatoes, all infused with a savory garlic and parmesan sauce. Perfect for a hands-off dinner, this recipe uses a slow cooker to deliver juicy, melt-in-your-mouth chicken with the vibrant taste of herbs and fresh parsley.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Vegetables

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

Garlic Parmesan Sauce

  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Garnish

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Start by halving the baby potatoes and mincing the garlic cloves. This ensures even cooking and maximum flavor infusion during slow cooking.
  2. Arrange in Crockpot: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts and halved baby potatoes evenly in the bottom of your crockpot to create a solid base for cooking.
  3. Make Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the grated parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Stir well until the mixture forms a thick, aromatic sauce.
  4. Combine and Pour: Pour the garlic parmesan mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and potatoes, ensuring all pieces are well-coated for optimal flavor absorption.
  5. Cook: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours for tender, juicy chicken and perfectly cooked potatoes. Alternatively, cook on high heat for 3 hours if you’re short on time.
  6. Finish and Garnish: Once cooking is complete, sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top to add a fresh, vibrant finish to the dish before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh parmesan cheese for the best, richest flavor and texture.
  • Adjust cooking time based on the wattage and model of your crockpot; some slow cookers may cook faster or slower.
  • You can add other vegetables such as carrots or green beans for extra nutrition and color.
