Slow Cooker Homestyle Chicken and Vegetables

I’ve made this two times in the last few days for dinner because it’s just so easy and so tasty. My son exclaimed that I need to make these cooked carrots more often. I appreciate this one pot meal so much because it has the protein (chicken), starch (red potatoes) and vegetables (beans and carrots) all together in one dish. The seasoning is so tasty too. This is my new favorite go-to healthy weeknight dinner recipe. I love it!

What Slow Cooker Did You Use?

To make slow cooker homestyle chicken and vegetables I used my 6 quart oval Kitchenaid slow cooker.* I love this slow cooker (you can see me talking about it in a video here). It cooks low and evenly. I love the medium heat choice because most slow cookers that I’ve seen only have the option of cooking on low or high. If you’re going to buy just one slow cooker, this is the one that I recommend

Description

Well seasoned chicken, green beans, red potatoes and carrots are all cooked together in your slow cooker. A true one pot meal that is family friendly, tastes amazing and is so easy to put together.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 lbs uncooked thawed boneless, skinless chicken breasts or boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1/2 pound baby carrots (the thicker kind) or whole peeled carrots
  • 1 lb fresh green beans
  • 1 1/2 lbs red potatoes
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp crushed rosemary
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare your chicken by cutting off excess fat and then cutting the chicken into bite size pieces. Add the chicken to the slow cooker.
  2. Prepare your vegetables. Wash your green beans and trim off the ends. Cut them in half. Wash your potatoes and cut the red potatoes in half (for firmer) or in quarters (for soft). Add all the vegetables to the slow cooker.
  3. Sprinkle in the salt, rosemary, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, paprika and olive oil. Use a large spoon to toss everything together and to distribute the seasonings.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours. Remove lid, stir and scoop onto dishes and enjoy!

    I haven’t tried this yet. Just a suggestion if reheating in a microwave – we put a wet paper towel over plate of food and nuke for 2.5 to 3 minutes.

    This was delicious! Your combination of spices was perfect and deeply flavorful. I didn’t have green beans so I used some chopped kale and it worked out great. I also added 2 cups of low sodium chicken broth because I like my crock pot dishes to have “soupy” base. This recipe is one of my favorites! Thank you!

    Made this last night and it is a keeper! I put the chicken in first then the spices. I added the veggies on top. I was nervous not to add any liquid but it turned out great and was so glad I just followed the recipe. Will be making this again!

    Karen, thank you so much for your wonderful recipes. This was a real winner. I did not expect it to be so flavorful & I did not expect it to create so much liquid. I did add a 1/2 cup unsalted chicken broth in the beginning, and I will do that again because I need to have a lot of “gravy”. In the last hour I made a roux w/ 1/4 cup cold chicken broth w/ 2 T flour & added it to the liquid in the crock. Other than that, I didn’t change a thing. All told in a 4 Qt Crock after 5 hours, it was perfect ! I mean, it was really, really good ! I can’t wait to make it again. Thank you !

    I do not add any spices but just place a little water on the bottom.

        Always put the vegetables on the bottom. They take longer to cook. Cut the vegetables so they are smaller. I added a can of chicken noodle soup and a can of water to help the veggies along. It worked well.

          Put some water on your chicken if you’re going to microwave it. It will steam the chicken and keep it from drying out. Your microwave excites water molecules and will dehydrate your as it heats up.
