Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 ½ lbs chicken breasts or thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 small onion diced
- 3 large carrots peeled and coarsely chopped
- 3 stalks celery chopped
- 5 medium golden potatoes peeled and quartered
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme*
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary*
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 bay leaves optional
- 32 ounces chicken broth or stock (4 cups)
- 1 cup green peas frozen or canned
- ½ cup half and half
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
Brown the chicken:
- If your slow cooker has a browning/sauté mode, add the oil to the heated insert and brown the chicken pieces for about 2 minutes per side. Otherwise, heat a large pan over medium-high heat, and once hot, add the oil. Brown the chicken pieces on the pan, about 2 minutes per side, until they're nice and golden. Then, transfer the chicken pieces and the juices into the slow cooker dish.
Slow Cook:
- To the chicken pieces in the slow cooker, add the onion, carrots, celery, potatoes, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, chicken broth, and bay leaves (if using). Stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 8 hours or HIGH for 4 to 5 hours.
30 minutes before serving:
- If you were cooking this on LOW, push the cooking mode to HIGH.
- Combine half and half with corn starch until there are no visible clumps. Add the slurry to the slow cooker dish, add add the peas. Stir to combine. Cook for 10 minutes and serve.
Notes
- Substitute the thyme and rosemary for 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning.
- If using fresh herbs, use 2 teaspoons freshly chopped thyme and 2 teaspoons chopped finely chopped rosemary.
