Description
Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and Potatoes is a cozy, hands-off dinner made with juicy chicken thighs, tender baby potatoes, and a rich, buttery garlic-Parmesan sauce. It’s creamy, flavorful, and perfect for a no-fuss family meal straight from the slow cooker.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (or boneless if preferred)
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Mix sauce: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, heavy cream, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Layer in crockpot: Place baby potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker. Arrange chicken thighs on top.
- Pour and cook: Pour the garlic-Parmesan sauce over everything. Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours until chicken is tender and cooked through.
- Crisp (optional): For crispy chicken skin, transfer to a baking sheet and broil for 3–5 minutes before serving.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan. Serve hot with a side salad or steamed veggies.
Notes
For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice before serving. You can substitute Yukon gold or red potatoes for baby potatoes. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
