Ingredients

To make this delicious dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 4 medium russet potatoes, cut into chunks
• 2 lbs chicken breasts, cut into cubes
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 3 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp dried basil
• 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnishing)

Special Tip:

• If you prefer, you can use Yukon Gold or red potatoes instead of russets.
• If fresh garlic isn’t available, jarred minced garlic is an excellent alternative.

Directions:

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

Scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly to remove dirt. Russet potatoes work great for this dish, but you can also use Yukon Gold or red potatoes if preferred. Fresh garlic gives the best flavor, but jarred minced garlic is a quick alternative.

Step 2: Layer the Ingredients in the Crockpot

Drizzle the olive oil at the bottom of your crockpot. Then, add the chopped potatoes and season them with salt and pepper.

Step 3: Prepare the Chicken

Cut the chicken breasts into cubes and season them with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil. Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the crockpot on top of the potatoes.

Step 4: Add the Garlic

Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the chicken and potatoes. Make sure it’s well distributed for full flavor.

Step 5: Make the Creamy Parmesan Sauce

Whisk the heavy cream, chicken broth, and parmesan cheese in a small bowl until smooth. Pour this creamy mixture over the chicken and potatoes in the crockpot.

Step 6: Slow Cook

Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low for 6-7 hours or until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are soft. Check for tenderness before serving.

Step 7: Serving Crockpot Garlic Parmesan Chicken Potatoes

Once the dish is ready, garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color. Serve hot and enjoy!

This crockpot garlic parmesan chicken and potatoes pairs wonderfully with:
