Slow Cooker Lipton Onion Potatoes
These slow cooker Lipton onion potatoes are tender, buttery, and packed with savory onion flavor. An incredibly easy side dish made with simple pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes halved or quartered into 1-inch pieces
- 1 packet 1 ounce Lipton onion soup mix
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into small pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Wash and dry the potatoes. Halve baby potatoes or cut larger potatoes into roughly 1-inch pieces.
- Add the potatoes to the insert of your slow cooker.
- Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and toss to coat evenly.
- Sprinkle the Lipton onion soup mix, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt over the potatoes. Toss until well coated.
- Scatter the butter pieces evenly over the top of the seasoned potatoes.
- Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 2½ hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Toss gently before serving to redistribute the buttery cooking liquid. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- Don't lift the lid during cooking, as this adds significant time to the cook time.
- For slightly firmer potatoes, prop the lid open slightly for the last 20 to 30 minutes to allow steam to escape.
- Adjust salt to taste — the Lipton soup mix is already well-seasoned, so taste before adding additional salt.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
