Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or until warmed through.
- For a lower sodium version, use low-sodium chicken broth and a parmesan garlic sauce with reduced salt.
- You can make this dish dairy-free by substituting parmesan cheese with a vegan cheese alternative.
- If you prefer crispier potatoes, brown them in a skillet before adding to the slow cooker.
