Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes halved
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese optional, for extra creaminess
Instructions
- Prepare the Crockpot: Lightly grease the crockpot with olive oil or nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Layer the Ingredients: Place the halved baby potatoes at the bottom of the slow cooker. Drizzle with melted butter and season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Add the Chicken: Lay the chicken breasts on top of the potatoes. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and minced garlic.
- Make the Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, chicken broth, and parmesan cheese. Pour over the chicken and potatoes.
- Cook Low & Slow: Cover and cook on low for 6 hours (or on high for 3-4 hours) until the chicken is tender and the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Final Touches: If using mozzarella, sprinkle it on top during the last 10 minutes. Let it melt into the creamy sauce.
- Serve & Enjoy: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm with your favorite sides.
