Ingredients
  

Core Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes halved
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Substitutions: Use chicken thighs instead of breasts red or Yukon Gold potatoes, Pecorino Romano for sharper flavor, fresh herbs in place of dried, or avocado oil instead of olive oil.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the crockpot: Place chicken breasts and halved baby potatoes in an even layer at the bottom of the crockpot.
  2. Mix coating: In a medium bowl, combine parmesan, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Whisk into a paste-like mixture.
  3. Coat ingredients: Pour mixture over chicken and potatoes, massaging or stirring to evenly distribute.
  4. Cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours. Avoid opening lid during cooking.
  5. Finish: In final 5 minutes, sprinkle with fresh parsley. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not use frozen chicken for crockpot recipes. Always thaw completely to ensure food safety and tender results.
