Slow cooker white wine chicken stew
Prep: 30
Total: 420
Serving: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 inch pieces
- Freshly ground salt and pepper
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 6 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 large yellow onion, cut into chunks
- 3 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch diagonal slices
- 1 pound yukon gold potatoes, diced into ½ inch cubes
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour (or sub all purpose gluten free flour)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or heavy cream or regular milk will work)
- 2/3 cup frozen peas
Directions
- Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to a large skillet and place over high heat.
- Add chicken pieces and generously season with salt and pepper, brown the meat so that you give the meat room for a nice sear. This should take about 5-6 minutes. You do not need to cook all the way through, we just want these nice and browned.
- Transfer to a large 6 or 8-quart slow cooker.
- Next add the following to the slow cooker with the chicken: chicken broth, dry white wine, worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, thyme, rosemary, dried oregano and salt and pepper.
- Stir together with the chicken until combined, then add in garlic, onion chunks, carrots and diced potatoes.
- Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.
- Next, remove 1/2 cup of chicken broth from the slow cooker and transfer to a medium bowl, then stir in ½ cup of milk and whisk in ¼ cup flour until there aren’t any lumps remaining.
- Add mixture back to the slow cooker and stir to combine.
- Stir in frozen peas and cook uncovered on HIGH for 15-20 more minutes until chicken stew thickens up a bit.
- Taste and season with more salt and pepper, if necessary.
