This is a hearty, easy and very filling meal that my family loves. It can be adjusted for a thicker stew that my husband likes served over rice, or chicken broth can be added for more of a soup.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN STEW

I like to sprinkle chicken stew with toasted almonds or cashews and serve with hot couscous. Flavored with cinnamon and a touch of sweetness from the apricots, this pretty dish will stand apart from the rest at potlucks, too! -Angela Buchanan, Longmont, Colorado

FRENCH COUNTRY CHICKEN STEW (CROCK POT)



French Country Chicken Stew (Crock Pot) image

This is my improvisation of a recipe found in "The Slow Cooker Bible." Though I am not especially fond of the canned soups, this appealed to me and I tested it using an adaptation of Recipe #18157. The result was a bit soupy but the taste was very good. For convenience, you may find it easier to use store bought canned soup. The dish itself is warm and comforting with a nice blend of flavors. Perfect as the weather gets cooler. Serve over rice or noodles.

Time 5h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons low-sodium instant chicken bouillon granules
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 pinch garlic powder
1 pinch black pepper
1 cup water
cooking spray
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
4 carrots, cut into 1/4 inch thick coins
4 celery ribs, cut into 1/4 thick slices
2 cups baby white mushrooms, halved (optional)
4 -6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 teaspoons herbes de provence
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (1 ounce) envelope onion soup mix
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 -3 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • To prepare the soup substitute, combine all ingredients in a medium sized bowl and whisk until smooth. Make sure there are no lumps of dried milk as those will carry over to the sauce of the stew. You can omit this step by using a can of creamed soup.
  • Prepare your crock pot with a light coating of cooking spray.
  • Mix together the aromatics (onions, celery and carrots) and place as a first layer in the bottom of the crock pot. If you are using mushrooms, layer on top of the aromatics.
  • Place the chicken breasts on top of the vegetables. Combine the onion soup mix with the herbs (thyme, pepper and Herbs de Provence) and sprinkle on top of the chicken and vegetables.
  • Pour soup substitute or canned soup on top. Cover and cook on high for 3 to 4 hours. (I found 4 worked for me but appliances vary.)
  • Blend together the wine and cornstarch. (If you are using canned soup, 2 tablespoons will do, otherwise use 3 tablespoons.) Stir into the crock pot until well mixed and smooth. Cook uncovered on high for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Serve over rice or noodles.
