- 2 russet potato peeled and diced
- 1/2 yellow onion , peeled and diced
- 1 celery diced, stalk
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper coarse ground
- 1 cup chicken broth (or water)

Instructions
- In your cast aluminum slow cooker (or a seperate pan), brown the chicken on both sides for 3-5 minutes on high.
- Remove the chicken to add in the vegetables.
- Add the potatoes, onion and celery to the slow cooker and season with salt and pepper.
- Put the chicken stock onto the vegetables.
- Add the chicken thighs to the top of the vegetables cover.
- Cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 hours.
- About 15 minutes before the timer is done remove the chicken and make a paste out of the flour and butter using a fork to mash it together.
- Add the butter mixture, the heavy cream and the thawed frozen vegetable mix to the vegetable mixture and stir.
- If your chicken isn't crispy enough right out of the slow cooker, you can brown it in the oven on broil for a couple of minutes or if you have a cast aluminum slow cooker just add the chicken back on top and pop the whole insert into the oven under the broiler for 2-3 minutes so the chicken skin crisps up.
- Serve with biscuits or cooked puff pastry.
