A delicious and easy recipe for Slow Cooker Parmesan Garlic Chicken and Potatoes, perfect for a comforting meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well to create a garlic-Parmesan sauce.
- Place the halved baby potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour half of the garlic-Parmesan sauce over the potatoes and toss to coat.
- Arrange the chicken thighs on top of the potatoes. Pour the remaining garlic-Parmesan sauce over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.

- Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken and potatoes from the slow cooker. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- To add more vegetables, consider including carrots or green beans during the last hour of cooking.
- For a creamier sauce, stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream or sour cream into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
