Robyn's Crock Pot Herb Roasted Potatoes

Robyn's Kitchen's Note:

This is an easy side dish recipe for the crock pot. Adjust seasonings to your liking because I don't know if the measurements are exact. I also make these in the oven, just bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes or until tender.

• Total Time: 5 hrs 10 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 5 hrs

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 6 medium potatoes
• ¼ cup water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon instant minced onion
• ½ teaspoon dried dill
• 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 4 tablespoons butter

Directions:

1. Chop potatoes into half moons (slice potato in half longways, then into pieces). Place into crock pot.
2. Add water and sprinkle with all the herbs and seasoning. Stir to distribute the herbs.
3. Add butter in separate pieces on top of the potatoes.
4. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours or until tender.
5. Note: It may take less time to cook, I'm never home to check when they are actually ready! I've let them cook up to 8 hours and they are still good.

Update - I decided to turn this into a main dish by adding chicken. I marinated skinless chicken breasts in about 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 Tbsp lemon juice and sprinkled on the same spices used in your recipe. The next day, I just put the breasts on top of the potatoes and cooked on low for 6-7 hours. It was delicious. Sept 7/09 Awesome roasted potatoes without heating up the kitchen! My guests loved them and two people asked for the recipe! I made exactly as written and wouldn't change a thing. After 5 hours on low, the potatoes were still too hard so I cranked it up to high for the last hour and they were just perfect. Made for Fall PAC 2009. Thx for sharing your recipe Robyn!

These were great! Very easy to put together. I left out the dill and instead of butter I used butter spray so I could reduce some of the calories. This was a great side dish with chicken. Thanks so much for posting!! :)

The spice measurements seemed too much for six medium potatoes sitting in a crockpot for five hours. I halved all except the garlic powder, and that seasoning amount was just right for our household. These tasted good, but like most crockpot recipes, the potatoes don't brown up very well. Maybe they're more attractive oven baked. Next time I will try that method.
