Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 4 medium carrots
- 1 large onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes, then cut them in half. If they are particularly large, quarter them.
Peel the carrots and cut them into 2-inch chunks.
Peel and roughly chop the onion.
Mince the garlic cloves.
In the bottom of the crock pot, add the prepared baby potatoes, carrots, onion, and minced garlic.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the vegetable mixture in the crock pot.
Pour the chicken broth over the chicken and vegetables to keep everything moist as it cooks.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 5 hours (or on high for 3 hours) until the chicken is cooked through and tender, and the vegetables are soft.
Once cooked, garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy this easy, nutritious meal straight from your crock pot!
