CROCKPOT CHICKEN CREOLE
I love a good chicken leg recipe. No one ever said you have to pay a lot to eat well. This is homestyle Cajun comfort food, easily made in the slow cooker. It's not that much different from my chicken gumbo the way I learned, except this is thicker, and has no okra or gumbo file.

Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet and brown chicken pieces; then place them in the bottom of the crock.
- 2. Add the onion, celery, bell pepper, garlic and thyme to the pan and saute for about 2-3 minutes until onions become translucent.
- 3. Add the red wine to the pan and stir, letting it pretty much cook off.
- 4. Stir inn the roux, diced tomatoes, cajun spice, salt and black pepper. Add hot sauce to taste.
- 5. Pour mixture over the chicken legs in the crock, then cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until chicken is cooked through.
- 6. Serve with steamed rice (I also like adding more hot sauce but that's just me).
