Garlic Chicken and Potatoes (Crock Pot)

"This dish smells wonderful while it's cooking. It will bring your family running at dinner time. This may get dry in the crock pot after awhile. So I recommend adding about one or two cups of chicken stock to barely cover the chicken while it cooks."

  1. It was really good! You must sprinkle salt on it after, but I was surprised at how yummy it was. Definitely cut the potatoes in small pieces.
     
  2. If I could give this 500 stars, I would. DH ate every single bite. His dialysis requires extra protein, so any main course that is safe for his AND that he'll eat is a blessing. I added baby carrots to the potatoes & they were almost carmelized. Simple & scrumptious. THANK you SO much !!
     
  3. First, I used thighs instead of breasts since that's what I had. I used 5, since I'm feeding 5 adults. I browned them before I put them in the slow cooker. I ended up using 10 red potatoes because there is no way 4 will feed 5 adults. I used 12 cloves of garlic and the garlic flavor was still fairly weak to us. I did use the full amount of melted butter and honey, and didn't find it too sweet. I tossed in an onion because it looked like it was going to be too bland. Since I didn't have lemon pepper, I added a 1/2 tsp turmeric, probably 1 T or so of ground black pepper, and 2 c chicken broth. I cooked it on low for 8 hours, and then pulled all the liquid out and moved it over to the stove. I made a roux and used the liquid to make gravy. I ended up adding another cup of chicken broth to extend it. To the gravy I added a 1/2 tsp of turmeric, a tsp of poultry seasoning, 1 T granulated garlic, and 1 T granulated onion before serving. It was okay, but the chicken ended out too dry. I'm going to try cooking it for a little less time next time, probably 6-7 hours instead of the full 8.
     
  4. Love the recipe! Mine ended up being Chicken soup. I made my own broth because I didn't have any (1 tbsp butter to 1 cup of water). I added spices to the chicken before I put in the crock pot because I saw in other reviews that chicken was bland. I also added spices to the broth. I did not have honey so I used apples and even they came out deliciously topped on the chicken. Chicken was tender. I added carrots and broccoli because I had it there and my husband loves broccoli. Such a great recipe and was my first time using the crock pot wish I would have taken a picture of it to post here and show my mama. Thank you so much! Loved the recipe!!
     
  5. This chicken was very tender--but bland. I followed the recipe exactly, I added 1 1/2 cups chicken broth. Something missing.
