Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by patting your chicken dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Optionally, sear in a skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side for extra flavor.
- In your slow cooker, add the minced garlic and cubed butter, allowing it to melt slightly. Layer in the seasoned chicken, followed by chopped potatoes and carrots, then pour in the chicken broth to cover the vegetables halfway.
- Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on LOW for 6 hours. Avoid lifting the lid, as each check adds 15 minutes to the cooking time.
- After 6 hours, check the chicken for doneness; it should be fork-tender. Let it sit for about 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve the chicken with potatoes and carrots, garnished with parsley. Pairs well with crusty bread or a side salad.

Notes
Searing the chicken adds great flavor and color. Keep lid lifts to a minimum to maintain cook time, and enjoy leftovers by reheating with broth to keep moisture.
