Description

A comforting meal of tender chicken and seasoned potatoes cooked in a creamy garlic sauce using a slow cooker.


Ingredients

  • 2 pounds potatoes, cut in 1½-2 inch chunks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup creamy Parmesan garlic sauce
  • ½ cup water or chicken stock
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste (optional)


Instructions

  1. Combine potatoes, olive oil, ¾ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and paprika in the bottom of a slow cooker. Stir until well coated.
  2. Place chicken pieces on top and sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together Parmesan garlic sauce and water until well incorporated.
  4. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and potatoes.
  5. Cook on High for 240 minutes or on Low for 360 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
  6. During the last 20 minutes of cooking, add mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Continue to cook, covered.
  7. Before serving, sprinkle with chopped parsley.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken overnight in the Parmesan garlic sauce. Serve with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
