Slow Cooker Lipton Onion Potatoes
Ingredients:
- 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:
1. Start by thoroughly greasing the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
2. Wash and peel (if desired) the potatoes. Thinly slice them, ensuring they are of even thickness for consistent cooking.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced potatoes with the melted butter, making sure each slice is coated. Sprinkle the Lipton Onion Soup mix over the potatoes and mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
4. If you choose to use cheese, now is the time to add your shredded cheddar to the potato mixture and blend it through.
5. Carefully layer the seasoned potatoes into the slow cooker and pour the half cup of chicken broth or water over the top. The liquid will help to steam the potatoes to a tender finish while the slow cooker does its magic.
6. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours. Cooking times may vary depending on your specific slow cooker and the thickness of your potato slices.
7. Once the potatoes are tender and cooked through, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
