Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts
  • 1 cup chicken broth Can substitute with vegetable broth or water.
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese Can swap with a mix of cheddar and mozzarella for a different flavor.
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried Italian herbs Add red pepper flakes for heat if desired.
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced Ensure even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.
  • 1 can chicken noodle soup (optional) Enhances flavor if stirred into the broth before serving.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by placing the chicken breasts directly into the crockpot.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the chicken broth, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried Italian herbs, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
  3. Pour this cheesy mixture over the chicken in the crockpot.
  4. Add the diced potatoes on top of the chicken, stirring gently to coat everything in that delicious sauce.
  5. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until chicken is tender and potatoes are soft.
  6. For extra flavor, drain a can of chicken noodle soup and stir it into the broth before serving.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy your cozy meal!

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for longer storage. Reheat in the microwave or stovetop until warmed through, ensuring chicken reaches 165°F.
