This hearty dish combines Italian seasoning with creamy parmesan, making it perfect for a family dinner with minimal prep and effortless slow cooking.

  • Total Time: 4 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Chicken and Potatoes

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, quartered

Seasoning and Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 (12-ounce) bottle parmesan garlic sauce
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Spray the inside of a slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
  2. Layer Potatoes: Place the quartered Yukon gold potatoes evenly at the bottom of the slow cooker as a base layer.
  3. Cut Chicken: Cut boneless skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized, 1-inch pieces for even cooking and easy eating.
  4. Add Chicken and Seasoning: Place the chicken pieces on top of the potatoes and sprinkle the dried Italian seasoning evenly over them to infuse flavor.
  5. Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour the parmesan garlic sauce and chicken broth over the chicken and potatoes, then sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese on top to create a rich sauce as it cooks.
  6. Combine: Stir gently to combine all ingredients evenly without disrupting the layering too much.
  7. Cook: Cover with the slow cooker lid and cook the mixture on LOW setting for 4-5 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours until the chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Once done, garnish with fresh chopped parsley and additional parmesan cheese if desired, then serve hot for a delicious comforting meal.

Notes

  • For best flavor, use fresh parsley as garnish to add a burst of color and freshness.
  • You can adjust cooking time depending on your slow cooker model; check tenderness of potatoes before serving.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, uncover the slow cooker and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes to reduce liquids.
  • Feel free to swap potatoes for sweet potatoes for a different flavor and nutritional profile.
  • Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
