Helen Posted 125 days ago Absolutely delicious, will be trying this again Sarah Posted 166 days ago Ours looked nothing like the pic. We didn't add onion, or carrot, or celery. We didn't brown the chicken, we used ketchup instead of tomato puree. Strange thing is, it looked a lot nicer than the pic and tasted GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!! Gem Posted 174 days ago I used all above but added small chunks of butternut squash, 4 fresh tomatoes and instead of mixed herbs used 1/2 tsp of turmeric when softening onions, and added 1tsp paprika and 2 tsp cider vinegar to veg. Really tastes fresh, summer like, and perfect for a spring supper. neil Posted 187 days ago on your home page it says the crock pot is the only thing that is used, but in this recipe you got to use another pan. Dave Posted 198 days ago Looks like this serves just 2, given the ingredients. Personally, I'd triple it and then freeze the remainder. sarah james Posted 200 days ago this recipe sounds nice, but it do'sent say how many peaple it serves <1>

Slow Cooker Tip - Cooking Chicken Remove skin from poultry, and trim excess fat from meats. Fats will melt with long cooking times, and will add an unpleasant texture to the finished dish. Fatty foods will also cook too quickly. Large pieces of meat can be browned before cooking in the crockpot, but this step isn't necessary. Browning adds color and helps in flavor development. Dairy products should be added during the last 30 minutes of cooking time, unless the recipes states otherwise. Tips & Interesting Information about Slow Cookers >
