Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, combine garlic salt, paprika, and pepper, mixing well to create a flavorful seasoning blend.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs skin-side down, searing for about 2 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Take your baby potatoes and halve or quarter them. Toss with the remaining seasoning and minced garlic, then arrange in an even layer at the bottom of the slow cooker.
  4. Place the seared chicken thighs on top of the seasoned potatoes in the slow cooker. Cover with the lid, setting your slow cooker to LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours.
  5. Once cooked, sprinkle shredded parmesan on top and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
