Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes halved
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Instructions

  • Prepare the Potatoes: Begin by washing the baby potatoes and cutting them in half. Mince the garlic cloves and set them aside.
  • Season the Chicken: Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) until evenly coated.
  • Layer the Ingredients: Place the halved potatoes in the bottom of the crockpot. Put the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the potatoes.
  • Add Chicken Broth: Pour the chicken broth over the chicken and potatoes, making sure everything is well coated.
  • Add Garlic and Cheese: Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the chicken. Next, add the grated parmesan cheese on top, ensuring it covers the chicken nicely.
  • Cook the Mixture: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  • Check for Doneness: After cooking, make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). The potatoes should be fork-tender.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken and potatoes from the crockpot. Spoon any remaining sauce over the top for extra flavor.
  • Garnish: If you want, chop fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the dish for added color and flavor before serving. With these easy steps, you’ll have a delightful meal ready to impress your family and friends.
