Ingredients

Scale

Protein & Vegetables

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

Sauce & Seasonings

  • 4 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
  • 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Garnish (Optional)

  • Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Start by washing the baby potatoes and peeling the garlic cloves. Pat the chicken breasts dry to ensure even cooking and better flavor absorption.
  2. Layer in the Crockpot: Place the baby potatoes in the bottom of the crockpot as a base. Lay the chicken breasts evenly on top of the potatoes to ensure proper cooking.
  3. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a creamy, flavorful sauce.
  4. Pour Sauce Over the Chicken and Potatoes: Drizzle the prepared sauce evenly over the chicken breasts and potatoes, allowing the flavors to seep in thoroughly.
  5. Cook on Low: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or until the chicken is juicy and fully cooked, and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the dish to add color and freshness. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use room temperature chicken for more even cooking and juicier results.
  • Don’t skip the parmesan cheese; it’s key for the creamy texture and savory flavor.
  • If the sauce is too thin near the end, remove the lid and cook on high for 15–20 minutes to thicken.
  • Layer potatoes at the bottom as they cook better and absorb the sauce flavors.
  • You can assemble the crockpot the night before to save time on busy days.
