Instructions
Slow Cooker Instructions:
Chop all veggies and cut chicken into 1 inch cubes.
Optional: You can brown the chicken and vegetables in 1 tablespoon of olive oil if you’d like, but it’s not necessary. See StoveTop Instructions if you’d like to brown the meat/veggies!
In slow cooker insert, stir together chicken, potatoes, carrots, celery, flour, dried spices and chicken broth.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours. Cooking on low is recommended.
When ready to serve, stir in thawed peas. Discard bay leaf and enjoy!
StoveTop Instructions:
Chop all veggies and cut chicken into 1 inch cubes.
Note: You’ll need 1 tablespoon of olive oil to make this on the stovetop. This is not in the recipe because the slow cooker instructions don’t call for it.
In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat. Add cubed chicken to the pot and cook for 10 minutes until the chicken has browned.
Once the chicken has browned, add onion and garlic. Sauté for an additional 5 minutes until the onion and garlic starts to soften.
Add potatoes, carrots, celery, flour and dried spices. Stir to combine.
Important: For the stovetop, you’ll want to use 2 cups of chicken broth, not 1/2 cup. You need more liquid when cooking on the stove. Add chicken broth. Cover the pot and bring the pot to a low boil. The mixture should start to bubble and will start to thicken.
Cook over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
When ready to serve, stir in thawed peas. Discard bay leaf and enjoy!
