Step-by-Step Instructions for Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken
  1. Begin by measuring out all your ingredients for the Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken, ensuring you have everything ready for quick assembly. Chop the baby potatoes in half for even cooking, and mince the garlic. Take a moment to gather your slow cooker, measuring cups, and mixing bowl for a smooth cooking process.
  2. In your slow cooker, add the halved baby potatoes as the base layer. Next, place the boneless skinless chicken breasts on top of the potatoes, arranging them evenly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated parmesan cheese, dried oregano, basil, salt, black pepper, and olive oil to form a thick paste. Spread this aromatic mixture evenly over the chicken.
  4. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. Avoid stirring during cooking.
  5. As the cooking time nears completion, check the doneness of your Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken. The chicken should shred easily and register an internal temperature of 165°F.
  6. Once cooked, carefully transfer the Garlic Parmesan Crockpot Chicken and potatoes to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
