Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing the chicken tenderloins in the center of your slow cooker. Arrange potato wedges on one side and scatter baby carrots on the other side.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley. Stir until completely blended to create the garlic butter sauce.
  3. Pour the garlic butter mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables, using a spoon to coat everything gently.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 to 8 hours until chicken is tender and fully cooked.
  5. Once ready, remove the lid and serve the dish hot. Enjoy it directly or over rice, in tacos, or atop salads.
