Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by measuring and gathering all your ingredients for the Irresistible Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes. Chop the baby potatoes in half to ensure they cook evenly, and mince the garlic to release its aromatic flavor. Lay everything out so you can easily access it as you layer in the crockpot—this will make the process more efficient and enjoyable!
- In your crockpot, start by layering half of the halved baby potatoes at the bottom. Next, place the chicken breasts or thighs on top of the potatoes, ensuring they are spread evenly. Sprinkle the minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper evenly over the chicken. Finish the layering with the remaining potatoes before drizzling olive oil and generously coating everything with grated parmesan cheese.
- Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. Avoid stirring during this time, as keeping the layers intact ensures you achieve that delicious texture. As the Irresistible Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes cook, the flavors will meld beautifully, filling your kitchen with an enticing aroma that will have everyone eagerly waiting for dinner.
- After the cooking time, check for doneness by ensuring the chicken shreds easily with a fork and the potatoes are fork-tender. Use a meat thermometer to confirm the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F. This is the perfect time to appreciate the culinary magic that has taken place in your crockpot, transforming simple ingredients into a warm and hearty meal.
- Once everything is cooked to perfection, and the kitchen is filled with mouth-watering scents, it's time to serve! Optionally, sprinkle extra parmesan and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the dish for an added zing. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a vibrant finishing touch. Gather your family around the table and enjoy this comforting dinner that showcases the deliciousness of your Irresistible Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes.
