Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by washing and chopping the potatoes and carrots into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are uniform for even cooking. Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel.
  2. Place your chicken pieces in the bottom of the slow cooker, skin-side up. Sprinkle minced garlic over the chicken and add the chopped potatoes and carrots on top.
  3. Pour the chicken broth evenly over the layered ingredients, ensuring all veggies are slightly submerged to create a luscious sauce.
  4. Sprinkle salt, pepper, and chopped herbs over the top of the ingredients. Ensure every layer is seasoned well.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and set it to LOW for 6 hours, or HIGH for 4 hours. Avoid lifting the lid during cooking.
  6. Once cooking is complete, let the slow cooker stand for about 10 minutes with the lid on to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Serve the Garlic Butter Chicken onto plates, ensuring each serving includes chicken and veggies. Enjoy with crusty bread or a salad.
