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 Ingredients: Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Mince the garlic.
Season the Chicken: Coat chicken breasts with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Layer in Crockpot: Place potatoes on the bottom of the crockpot, then add the seasoned chicken on top.
Add Liquids and Toppings: Pour in the chicken broth. Sprinkle garlic and parmesan cheese over the chicken.
Slow Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
Check Doneness: Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Serve: Remove carefully and spoon sauce over the top.
Garnish: Add chopped fresh parsley before serving (optional).
Notes
Red pepper flakes add a mild kick, but you can omit them for a milder version.
Use freshly grated parmesan for the best flavor and melting.
For a creamier result, add a splash of heavy cream during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Leftovers store well in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
