Why this parmesan chicken recipe works

I always see slow cooking a meal as a major perk. Not only does it prevent you from having to stand over a stove but it can also make things taste better. While the slow cooker cooks up this parmesan chicken dinner, you can tackle getting a few things done.

This one-pot, dump-and-go meal is definitely something to consider making for dinner tonight!

Recipe Ingredients

ingredients for garlic parmesan chicken on a table.
  • Chicken Breasts: Boneless skinless chicken breast is the way to go with this recipe. The crock pot will cook them to fork tender and marinate the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Red Potatoes: These potatoes hold up extremely well when being cooked in the slow cooker. They won’t become too mushy and will often hold their shape.
  • Green Beans: Not only does this vegetable add flavor, but it also adds an additional side cooked along with the chicken and potatoes.
  • Seasonings: Italian seasoning, fresh garlic, garlic powder, kosher salt, and pepper create the perfect garlic parmesan sauce.
  • Olive Oil: You’ll coat the bottom of the crock pot with it to keep the chicken from sticking.
  • Parmesan Cheese: Added at end of cooking time to create the best-tasting garlic parmesan chicken.
