Preliminary Preparations

Pat dry the chicken breasts and season generously with salt and pepper. In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, thyme, and rosemary.

Layering in Crockpot

Start by placing the seasoned potatoes at the bottom of the crockpot. Scatter the finely chopped onion and minced garlic over the potatoes. Layer the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the onions and garlic.

Liquid Additions

Pour the chicken broth evenly over the layered ingredients in the crockpot. Optionally, add dry white wine for added flavor depth.

Season and Set Crockpot

Sprinkle additional dried thyme and rosemary over the chicken. Cover the crockpot and set it to either low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.

Optional Thickening

After cooking, if you desire a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with a small amount of cold water and stir it into the crockpot.

Final Steps and Garnish

Transfer the cooked chicken and potatoes to a serving dish. Pour some of the sauce over the dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Serve immediately, either as is or accompanied by a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
