Ingredients

Chicken Stew:

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 4 carrots, sliced
  • 3 potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Garnish:

  • Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken thighs at the bottom of the slow cooker. Layer the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, chopped onion, and minced garlic over the chicken.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the chicken broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the slow cooker contents.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
  4. About 30 minutes before serving, add the frozen peas and allow them to heat through.
  5. Once done, shred the chicken with two forks and stir it back into the stew. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • This stew can be easily customized with your favorite vegetables or herbs.
  • For a thicker stew, mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with water and stir it into the slow cooker 30 minutes before serving.
