Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Baby potatoes
- 8 ounces Cremini mushrooms
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and halve them if they are larger than bite-sized.
Clean the cremini mushrooms with a damp paper towel and slice them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
In a small microwave-safe dish, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or until fully liquefied.
In the crock pot, combine the potatoes, mushrooms, melted butter, garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to evenly coat the potatoes and mushrooms with the seasonings.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on high heat for 4 hours or on low heat for 6 hours, stirring once halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking.
After the cooking time, check the potatoes for tenderness by inserting a fork. They should be soft but not falling apart.
Pour the heavy cream over the cooked potatoes and mushrooms, then sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top. Stir gently to combine and allow the mixture to heat through for 5-10 minutes without replacing the lid.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Before serving, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve the Crock Pot Mushroom Potatoes warm as a standalone dish or as a side to your favorite protein.
