Slow Cooker Chicken and Potatoes

🍗 Slow Cooker Chicken and Potatoes 🥔

📝 Ingredients:

🔸️4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts

🔸️1 ½ pounds baby potatoes, halved

🔸️1 small onion, sliced

🔸️3 garlic cloves, minced

🔸️2 tablespoons olive oil

🔸️1 teaspoon salt

🔸️½ teaspoon black pepper

🔸️½ teaspoon paprika

🔸️½ teaspoon dried thyme

🔸️½ teaspoon dried rosemary

🔸️½ cup low-sodium chicken broth

🔸️(Optional) 1 tablespoon lemon juice

🔸️Fresh chopped parsley for garnish

👉Instructions:

✅️1. Season the veggies:

In a large bowl, toss the baby potatoes, sliced onion, and minced garlic with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.

✅️2. Layer in the slow cooker:

Add the seasoned potatoes and onions to the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker. Place the chicken on top. Pour chicken broth evenly over everything. Add lemon juice if using.

✅️3. Cook:

Cover and cook on Low for 6–7 hours or High for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.

✅️4. Optional – Broil for a golden finish:

Transfer the chicken and potatoes to a baking sheet and broil for 3–5 minutes for a crispy top. Watch carefully so it doesn’t burn.

✅️5. Serve and enjoy:

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot. Great with a green salad or warm crusty bread on the side.

👉 3 Tips for Best Results:

↪️1. Cut potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate.

↪️2. Avoid opening the lid while cooking—it releases heat and slows things down.

↪️3. Taste before serving—a little extra lemon juice or salt can brighten it up perfectly.
