Notes
- You can swap the creme fraiche for extra thick double cream.
- Add extra flavour to this slow cooker chicken casserole with some leftover chopped up ham added at the end, or even come cooked chopped bacon.
- This might not look like a lot of stock to add, but everything releases a lot of liquid when cooking, so you don't want it to be too watery.
- If you want to make this even more filling, then add some dumplings to it.
- Make sure to generously season everything and that you are using a really good stock, as this will make such a difference to the flavour.
- Place the carrots and potatoes at the bottom of the slow cooker, so they are fully submerged in the liquid so they cook all the way through.
