Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large potatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 packet of Lipton Onion Soup mix
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth or water
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions
- Prepare the slow cooker: Grease the inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Slice the potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes if desired, then slice them thinly to ensure even cooking.
- Season the potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, toss the sliced potatoes with melted butter, making sure each slice is coated. Sprinkle the Lipton Onion Soup mix over the potatoes and stir to evenly distribute the seasoning.
- Optional cheese: If you’re using shredded cheddar cheese, stir it into the potato mixture.
- Layer the potatoes: Carefully layer the seasoned potatoes into the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth or water over the potatoes to help them steam and cook evenly.
- Cook: Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours. Cooking time may vary based on your slow cooker and potato thickness.
- Adjust seasoning: Once the potatoes are tender and fully cooked, taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve: Serve the potatoes hot as a comforting side dish.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, add some shredded cheese on top during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- You can substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth for a vegetarian version.
- Feel free to add garlic or herbs (like thyme or rosemary) to enhance the flavor.
