Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese Use freshly grated for best flavor.
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil For coating chicken and drizzling over potatoes.
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Rinse and halve the baby potatoes, and mince the garlic if it's not already done.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, thyme, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, then coat them with the herb and Parmesan cheese mixture ensuring even coverage.
Cooking
  1. Place the halved baby potatoes in the bottom of a slow cooker. Drizzle a little olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Nestle the coated chicken breasts on top of the potatoes in the slow cooker.
  3. Pour the chicken broth around the sides of the chicken to keep the herbs in place and help contribute moisture.
  4. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
Serving
  1. Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken and potatoes from the slow cooker and place on a serving dish.
  2. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added flavor and a pop of color.
  3. Serve warm and enjoy your Slow Cooker Parmesan Garlic Chicken and Potatoes.

Notes

This dish pairs beautifully with a fresh garden salad or steamed green vegetables for a balanced meal. You can also serve it alongside crusty bread to soak up the flavorful juices. Consider adding a light white wine for a complete dining experience. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer storage, consider freezing the chicken and potatoes in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
