Chicken and Potatoes

Seasoning Mixture
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (divided: 1 tablespoon for greasing, 2 tablespoons for mixture)

- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Crockpot: Lightly grease the crockpot with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

- Make the Parmesan Garlic Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
- Coat Chicken and Potatoes: Pour the Parmesan garlic mixture evenly over the chicken and potatoes, ensuring all pieces are well coated for maximum flavor.

- Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the dish for a fresh, vibrant finish before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Cooking times may vary depending on your crockpot model; adjust as necessary to ensure chicken is fully cooked.
- For a richer flavor, you can add a splash of chicken broth to the crockpot before cooking.
- If baby potatoes are not available, small red or Yukon gold potatoes can be used as a substitute.
- To make the dish a one-pot meal, add vegetables like green beans or carrots alongside the chicken and potatoes.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
