Tender chicken and flavorful potatoes slow-cooked in a rich garlic Parmesan sauce, creating a comforting, savory dish that’s easy to prepare and perfect for family meals.

Ingredients

• 1 lb chicken breasts
• 5 medium sized potatoes
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• salt (for potatoes)
• pepper (for potatoes)
• garlic powder (for potatoes)
• paprika (for potatoes)
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 2 tbsp minced garlic
• Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

1. Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
   Begin by giving those potatoes a good wash to rid them of any dirt. Once they're sparkling clean, chop them into small, bite-sized cubes. This ensures they cook evenly and are easy to eat.

2. Step 2: Ready the Crockpot
   Grab your trusty crockpot and give it a nice coating of cooking spray to prevent sticking. Add the cubed potatoes right in. Drizzle them with olive oil, and then sprinkle on some salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss everything together to ensure the potatoes are well coated.

3. Step 3: Add Garlic
   Throw in the minced garlic, giving another thorough stir to mix it up with the potatoes and seasonings. This step infuses that delightful garlic aroma and taste throughout the dish.

4. Step 4: Chop and Season Chicken
   Take the chicken breasts and cut them into cubes. In a bowl, season the chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and Italian seasoning. Make sure each piece is well-seasoned for maximum flavor.

5. Step 5: Add Sauce to Chicken
   Pour just enough Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce over the chicken cubes to coat them. This will add a creamy, garlicky zest that complements the chicken perfectly.

6. Step 6: Cook Everything Together
   Set your crockpot to low and let it work its magic for about 6 hours. This slow cooking process allows the potatoes to reach a tender perfection and lets all the flavors meld beautifully.

7. Step 7: Stir and Check
   Once the cooking time is up, give everything a good stir to make sure the potatoes and chicken are evenly coated with all that deliciousness. Check the potatoes to ensure they're cooked to your liking—they should be tender when pierced with a fork.

8. Step 8: Top with Cheese
   Sprinkle a cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the dish. Let it sit for a bit until the cheese melts into a gooey, irresistible layer.

9. Step 9: Serve and Savor
   Dish up your creation and enjoy the comforting mix of flavors. This hearty meal is perfect for cozy evenings and is sure to be a hit at your dinner table.

Notes

In the world of crockpot cooking, a few hiccups are bound to happen, but no worries!

One classic stumble is forgetting to spray the crockpot. Without that slippery layer, your potatoes might cling on like they're holding a grudge.

Another common slip-up is over-seasoning. It’s tempting to go wild with the garlic Parmesan sauce, but remember, a little goes a long way. Too much sauce can drown the delicate balance of flavors.

Finally, keep an eye on the clock. Cooking times can vary, so start checking the tenderness of your potatoes at the 5-hour mark.

These little tweaks can make a big difference!
