- Prepare the Vegetables: Peel and slice the potatoes into even pieces and thinly slice the large onion to ensure even cooking throughout the dish.
- Combine Vegetables in Slow Cooker: Place the sliced potatoes and onions evenly in the slow cooker crock to prepare them for slow cooking.
- Mix Sauce Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, onion soup mix, and chicken broth until fully combined, creating a flavorful sauce.
- Pour Sauce Over Potatoes: Slowly pour the butter and onion soup mixture over the potatoes and onions in the slow cooker. Use a spoon to gently stir and coat the vegetables evenly with the mix.
- Cook Slowly: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on low heat setting for 6 to 7 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and flavors have melded together.
- Season to Taste: Once cooked, season the dish with salt and freshly ground black pepper according to your preference to enhance the savory flavors.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the potatoes before serving to add a pop of color and fresh herbal aroma.

- For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
- Use Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes for best texture and taste.

- Make sure to slice potatoes uniformly to ensure even cooking.
- This dish pairs well with roasted meats or grilled vegetables.
