How to Make Slow Cooker Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes

Baby potatoes in a slow cooker and diced chicken in a bowl with garlic parmesan sauce.

Step 1: Wash, prep, and cut the potatoes and place them in the slow cooker. Add olive oil, and herbs, and spices. Stir until well-coated.
Step 2: Place diced raw chicken in a small bowl and pour garlic sauce on top of the chicken.

Chicken added into the slow cooker then broccoli and cheese added.

Step 3: Add coated chicken to the Crock Pot and toss everything together. Cook.
Step 4: Once almost done cooking, add the broccoli and shredded cheese. Place the lid back on to help melt the cheese. I like to serve with extra sauce for dipping the broccoli, chicken, and even the potatoes in.

Easy Slow Cooker Recipe Tips

If you want cheese that melts easier and is even creamier, go for the mozzarella cheese blocks and shred it straight from the block.
Always check the internal temperature of your chicken to ensure it's safe to eat. Use a meat thermometer for the best accuracy.
When storing leftovers, sometimes I like to drizzle a little extra of the delicious sauce over everything so the next day when I enjoy it again it has a little bit more amazing flavor!

Recipe Faq's

Can I use a different vegetable?

Of course, ditch the broccoli and try some cauliflower or green beans instead.

Can I use dark meat, like skinless chicken thighs, instead?

Yes, for this recipe, I liked skinless chicken breasts, but you can use boneless chicken thighs or other dark meat. The cook time
may change, so always check the internal temp of the chicken before consuming.

What else can I add to this Slow Cooker Garlic Chicken
and Potatoes?

This is a great recipe to add a little extra flavor to. That may mean something different for different people, but some fun ideas to add the next time you make this are: Bring some heat with some red pepper flakes and maybe some white pepper Use fresh herbs
for even more flavor Feel free to swap up the cheese options and try other cheese varieties on top.

How to store

This easy meal should cool to room temperature before being transferred to an airtight container or bag. Then refrigerate any leftovers for up to 4-5 days or freezer for up to 3 months. It's also important to mention that the potatoes may change texture once thawed and reheated.
