A simple and hearty slow cooker meal featuring tender chicken, creamy garlic parmesan sauce, and baby potatoes. This dump-and-go recipe is perfect for easy weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 1 packet (1 ounce) dry Italian salad dressing mix
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Place chicken in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  2. Add the baby potatoes around the chicken.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the Italian dressing mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the chicken and potatoes.
  4. Pour the chicken broth into the slow cooker.
  5. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  6. About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the softened cream cheese and grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For a creamier sauce, you can add an extra ounce of cream cheese.
  • Chicken thighs will remain more moist than chicken breasts.
  • If you don’t have baby potatoes, you can use Yukon Golds or red potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks.
  • Serve with a side salad or crusty bread.
