Quick and Healthy Italian Slow Cooker Chicken and Potatoes
This dish is perfect for on-the-go families who want to come home to a comforting meal that’s ready to eat.
Ingredients
- 4 small bone-in chicken breasts, skin removed
- 2 tsp Italian herb seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 Tbs canola oil
- 1/2 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 1/4 lbs small red potatoes
- 3/4 cup frozen pearl onions, thawed
- 1 cup baby carrots
- 3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 8 oz small baby bella or white mushrooms
- Fresh thyme, chopped (optional)
Directions
- Combine the Italian herb seasoning, garlic salt, and pepper on a dinner plate. Spoon flour on to second dinner plate. Coat each chicken breast in the herb mixture; then dredge well in flour.
- Heat oil in a large skillet. Add chicken and cook over medium-high heat until chicken is golden brown on both sides (approximately 3-4 minutes per side). Cook chicken in two batches if necessary so as not to crowd the pan.
- Place chicken in a large slow cooker and add sun-dried tomatoes, potatoes, pearl onions, carrots, chicken broth, and mushrooms. Cover slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 8 hours. Sprinkle with fresh thyme before serving, if desired.
