Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 pounds quartered Yukon gold potatoes
- 1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1 (12-ounce) bottle parmesan garlic sauce
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Spray the inside of the crockpot with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking during cooking.
- Add Potatoes: Place the quartered Yukon gold potatoes evenly at the bottom of the slow cooker as the base layer.
- Add Chicken and Seasoning: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and layer them on top of the potatoes. Sprinkle the dried Italian seasoning over the chicken to enhance flavor.
- Add Sauces and Cheese: Pour the entire bottle of parmesan garlic sauce, chicken broth, and grated parmesan cheese over the chicken and potatoes.
- Combine and Cook: Stir gently to combine all ingredients evenly. Cover with the lid and cook on LOW for 5 hours to ensure tender chicken and potatoes, or on HIGH for 4 hours if pressed for time.
- Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, garnish with fresh chopped parsley and additional parmesan cheese if desired before serving.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 1-2 minutes until warmed through.
- For a crispier top, sprinkle extra parmesan cheese in the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Use skinless chicken thighs as an alternative for juicier meat.
- If parmesan garlic sauce is unavailable, substitute with a creamy garlic alfredo sauce mixed with grated parmesan.
