Crockpot recipes are a life savior! They are very easy to prep and super versatile. I have my favorites and this cheesy potatoes and chicken made it to my top picks. Made with boneless, skinless chicken, potatoes, Velveeta, onion, and milk. All dump in the pot and cook low and slow.
Delicious meals do not mean crazy ingredients and difficult steps, even spending eternity in the kitchen. Most of the time the simplest meals are the ones that require only a few ingredients and less fuss. Just like this creamy and rich crockpot dinner with loads of lush chicken and fork-tender potatoes. The perfect weeknight dinner for the entire family!
The other day, I was only left with chicken and potatoes. Thinking what to make of them, I raided the fridge and found Velveeta and milk. The first thing that came to my mind is my other favorite crockpot recipe, but have no smoked sausage. I have to improvise and swapped smoked sausage with chicken instead. Gosh! This dish turned out fantastic! I added a bit of milk to thin out the sauce. Feel free to adjust the sauce to your preference. And for this recipe, you do not need to parboil the potatoes because of the added milk. I cannot wait to make these cheesy potatoes and chicken again!
Ingredients
