I love using my Crockpot, don’t you? I feel so accomplished when I have dinner made before I even eat breakfast. The other day I was heading out the door at 7:00 am and since I wasn’t sure when I’d be home, I needed to find a quick and delicious meal to stick in the Crockpot. The trick was whether I had the ingredients or not. This recipe fit the bill. I found it on Taste of Home and I just made a few minor changes.
Slow Cooker Chicken Stew
Ingredients:
6 medium red potatoes, cut into chunks
2 cups diced baby carrots, diced into large pieces
Approximately 2 pounds of boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 large can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted – the family size. I think it’s about 30 ounces.
Pepper
Italian seasoning
Directions:
Wash and cut potatoes and place in the bottom of your crockpot that has been sprayed with cooking oil. Next cut up the carrots and place into the crockpot on top of the potatoes. Layer the chicken over the veggies and sprinkle with a bit of pepper and Italian seasoning. Then spread the entire can of cream of chicken soup over the top of the chicken and sprinkle a bit more seasoning to taste. Cover and turn on low and cook for 6 or so hours. I then stirred the stew and broke up the chicken into bite sized pieces. I added a bit more seasoning and let it cook a bit longer.
I served in bowls as a stew, but you could thicken the sauce a bit if you prefer. I served this with steamed broccoli, salad and biscuits.
