Slow Cooker Parmesan Potatoes #Recipe @PegCochran & #Giveaway

I made this recipe for our Easter dinner and it was a big hit.  It comes from Damn Delicious, and I followed it pretty much as is.  I couldn't find baby Dutch potatoes but I did find some adorable Blushing Belle red potatoes that fit the bill.  You can use dried herbs in this although next time I think I would try fresh.  



The best part about this was that it freed up the oven for the ham which was the centerpiece of the dinner.  You could throw these in the slow cooker on a weekday, too, and have a side dish all ready for dinner.  I cut the recipe in half to suit the size of our gathering and it worked out fine.  The recipe below is for the full amount.


3 pounds baby Dutch yellow potatoes, halved or any small potato cut into halves or quarters if bigger
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves (optional for garnish)

 

Directions

Coat the inside of your slow cooker with some non-stick spray or coat lightly with some olive oil.
Add the potatoes, olive oil, butter, garlic and herbs along with salt and pepper to taste.


Cover and cook on low for four to five hours or on high for two to three hours until potatoes are tender.
Toss with Parmesan and fresh parsley before serving.

  11. Thanks for the recipe! Gotta try this. We do a baked Parmesan Potato but never thought about using the slow cooker. Would be less calories. And would love the chance to read Dead and Berried sooner. Rather than later. Della at deepotter at peoplepc dot com
