Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 pounds of baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 packet of Lipton onion soup mix
- 1 cup of beef broth or chicken broth
- ¼ cup of unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Potatoes: Wash the potatoes thoroughly. Peel them if desired, though leaving the skin on adds texture and nutrients.
- Layer Ingredients in Slow Cooker: Place the potatoes evenly at the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle the Lipton onion soup mix evenly over the potatoes to ensure full flavor coverage.
- Add Broth and Butter: Pour the beef or chicken broth over the potatoes and onion mix to provide moisture for slow cooking. Dot small pieces of unsalted butter over the top for richness.
- Season and Cook: Season with salt and pepper according to your taste. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Finish and Serve: Once cooked, check the seasoning and adjust if necessary. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm as a savory side dish.
Notes
- Use baby potatoes for quicker cooking or Yukon Gold for creamier texture.
- If using chicken broth, choose low-sodium versions to better control the saltiness.
- Butter adds richness but can be substituted with a dairy-free alternative for lactose intolerance.
- Adjust cooking time depending on slow cooker model and potato size.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently in the microwave or on the stovetop.
