I put this together before church one Sunday morning. It smelled (and tasted!) fantastic when we got home. If you have garden fresh tomatoes, they make a wonderful side dish. A simple tossed salad would be good too.
I don’t have an ingredient picture this time. I think I was too busy getting ready for church, cooking as fast as I could. I forgot to snap the photo.
I did use frozen chicken tenders and skipped thawing them. They cooked just fine. You can also save time by estimating the herb measurements instead of measuring.
Here’s the how-to:
Ingredients
- 2 lbs. Frozen chicken tenders
- 1 Medium onion, sliced
- 1 1/2 lbs. New potatoes, quartered
- 1 Clove garlic, crushed
- 1/2 tsp. Oregano
- 1/2 tsp. Basil
- 1/2 tsp. Thyme
- 1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
- Black pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1-2 Tbs. Olive oil
Instructions
- Place chicken in the slow cooker. Top with sliced onion.
- In a small bowl, combine garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, Parmesan and oil. Toss with potatoes.
- Put potatoes over chicken and onions in slow cooker.
- Cook on high for 5-6 hours or low for 7-8 hours.

I’m about to have a baby any day now… I’ve stocked up on meals I can easily throw together in my crock pot which I rarely use… this will be something I can throw together and my husband can keep an eye on while I’m recouping. YUM it looks and sounds so good!
I love dishes like this where all you have to do is add a salad or a quick veggie at the end.
I normally try to have a slow cooker meal for Sundays or make sure we have leftovers from Friday night. That way it’s still in the safe to eat zone but isn’t a repeat from the night before.
This sounds wonderful! I can’t wait to try it. I also love quick and easy meals from the crock pot!
I make this same dish but throw in whole green beans and a jar of tomato sauce. Family loves it.
Great! I wondered what to make for dinner tomorrow! I love Crock Pot meals!
My Crock Pot may be my favorite kitchen appliance (though the frig is pretty important, too), and I use it several days most weeks. We go to the early service on Sunday, though, so everyone grabs something quick before we leave. Then we often have pancakes or waffles and fruit/yogurt or some type of egg dish for lunch. I love that special time together, and I sincerely hope my children continue to share Sunday lunch or dinner with us when they are all grown up.
What size slow cooker do you prepare your recipes in? Just cooking for two so I need to work on modifying the recipes to fit our slow cooker. Looks wonderful!
Cayla, my slow cooker is a 6 qt. It’s pretty big.
Do you think if I use about 1/2 it will work in a 3.5 qt crockpot? Or do you think I would need to change the cooking time significantly? I’ve not used a crockpot much.
Cayla, yes I think that will work just fine with the same cooking times as the larger recipe.
