Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken and Potatoes:

  • 1.5 to 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into chunks
  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes, halved

For the Sauce:

  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

For Garnish:

  • Fresh parsley or thyme, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep Chicken and Potatoes: Dice the chicken into bite-sized chunks. Wash and halve the baby potatoes (no need to peel). Set aside.
  2. Sear for Flavor (Optional): Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken pieces for 2–3 minutes on each side until lightly golden. This step is optional but adds extra flavor.
  3. Add to Crockpot: Lightly grease the crockpot. Add the chicken and potatoes. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  4. Prepare the Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a light simmer, then mix in the parmesan and mozzarella (if using) until melted and smooth.
  5. Slow Cook: Pour the sauce over the chicken and potatoes. Stir gently to coat. Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender and the chicken is fully cooked.
  6. Finish and Serve: Give everything a good stir before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme for color and freshness.
