Ingredients
Potatoes
- 2 lbs. russet potatoes, thinly sliced (about 8 small potatoes)
Seasonings
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1 oz. packet Lipton Onion Soup mix
Other
- 1/3 cup olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the slow cooker: Spray the inside of the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray to prevent the potatoes from sticking during the long cook time.
- Add potatoes: Place the thinly sliced russet potatoes into the slow cooker, arranging them in a spiral design if desired to ensure even cooking and presentation.
- Season: Sprinkle the garlic powder, black pepper, and Lipton Onion Soup mix evenly over the potatoes to infuse them with savory onion and garlic flavors.
- Oil the potatoes: Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the seasoned potatoes to help them cook tender and add richness.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 4 hours. Do not open the lid during cooking to maintain temperature and moisture for perfectly cooked potatoes.
Notes
- For best results, use uniformly thin slices of potatoes to ensure even cooking.
- Do not open the lid while cooking to avoid extending cooking time and uneven texture.
- Olive oil can be substituted with melted butter for a richer flavor.
- Adding a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley before serving adds color and freshness.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in a microwave or oven.
