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)
- Prep Chicken and Potatoes: Dice the chicken into bite-sized chunks. Wash and halve the baby potatoes (no need to peel). Set aside.
- 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.
- Add to Crockpot: Lightly grease the crockpot. Add the chicken and potatoes. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- 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.
- 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.
- Finish and Serve: Give everything a good stir before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme for color and freshness.
