Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes
• 2 cups carrots
• 1 large white or yellow onion
• 3 pieces garlic cloves
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Peel and slice the carrots into rounds. Finely dice the onion, and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 2

Layer the potatoes, carrots, and onion at the bottom of the crock pot.

Step 3

Place the chicken breasts on top of the vegetables, then sprinkle the garlic, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the chicken.

Step 4

Pour the chicken broth over the top of the chicken and vegetables.

Step 5

Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 hours until the chicken and vegetables are tender and cooked through.

Step 6

Thirty minutes before the cooking time ends, prepare the creamy sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, then whisk in the flour to make a roux. Cook for 1 minute while stirring constantly.

Step 7

Gradually whisk in the heavy cream until smooth, then stir in the softened cream cheese until fully melted and combined.

Step 8

Pour the cream mixture into the crock pot and gently stir to combine. Allow it to cook for the remaining 30 minutes on low heat to thicken the sauce.

Step 9

Once cooked, shred or slice the chicken breasts as desired. Stir everything together to coat the chicken and vegetables in the creamy sauce.

Step 10

Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy your Creamy Crock Pot Chicken Potato!
