Scale
Potatoes
- 5 medium-sized potatoes, cubed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Paprika, to taste
Chicken
- 1 lb chicken breasts, cubed
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tbsp minced garlic
- Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce, to cover the chicken
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and cube the potatoes evenly. Spray the inside of your crockpot with cooking spray to prevent sticking, then add the cubed potatoes. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and season them with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir well to ensure the potatoes are fully coated with the seasonings.
- Season the Chicken: Cube the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, season the chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and Italian seasoning. Add the minced garlic and then generously cover the seasoned chicken with the Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce, mixing to coat all pieces thoroughly.
- Cook in the Crockpot: Place the seasoned chicken evenly over the potatoes in the crockpot. Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low heat for about 6 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is fully cooked through. Stir occasionally during cooking to integrate flavors and prevent sticking.
- Add Cheese: Once the chicken and potatoes are cooked to tenderness, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top. Cover the crockpot and let the cheese melt for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Serve: Serve the Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes hot. For extra flavor, optionally drizzle with ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce as a garnish.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the seasonings such as garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning to suit your personal taste preferences.
- Ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the olive oil and spices to maximize their flavor during slow cooking.
- Check the chicken for doneness before serving to ensure it reaches a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- You can substitute mozzarella with other cheeses like cheddar or Parmesan for varied flavor profiles.
- Optionally, add chopped fresh parsley or chives as a garnish for freshness.
