- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 bottle Italian dressing

- Add clean potatoes to the slow cooker. Then add the garlic, the remaining garlic powder, onion powder, salt & pepper.
- Cut 2 tbsp of butter into cubes or slices. Place in different areas over the potatoes. That way all the potatoes will be buttered when it melts.
- Add the seared chicken thighs on top of potatoes.

- Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. Sprinkle with the remaining parmesan before serving. Serve and enjoy!
