Chicken Stew in the Crock Pot

I hav been having a bit of problem with my video and voice...so I have also posted the recipes below for you.

Chicken Stew

3 or 4 chicken breasts ( you can use chicken thighs too but you will use a few more of them )

1 envelope of onion soup mix

1-2 cups of frozen pearl onions

2cups of halfed fresh mushrooms ( you can use more if you like )

1 cup dry red wine ( remember if you don't like the taste of the wine it won't be good for cooking...if you drink it - cook with it )

Brown your chicken pieces in a large skillet ( drizzle a bit of olive oil in it )

Place your meat in the crock pot, Sprinkle the top of the chicken with Onion soup mix, mushrooms, pearl onions. Pour the wine over the top cook in the crock pot for about 4 1/2 - 5 hours on low. you can cook this on high if you want for about 2 1/2 - 3 hrs also.

Garnish with some fresh snipped basil...and serve over mashed potatoes.....Yummy !

Comfort Food from A Crock Pot

Here's the Recipe...Enjoy!

4-5 Chicken Breasts FROZEN (depends how many your feeding)

1- 28oz can of diced tomatoes

A generous amount of Italian Seasoning (Oregano, Basil, Rosemary) you can buy this as a spice mix at your grocer.

Fresh or Jared garlic ) what ever you prefer...but don't be shy about using lots of garlic in this recipe.

Salt & Pepper to taste

Turn crock pot on high for 4-6 hrs. The cooking time depends on the size of your chicken breasts and the temperature of your crock pot.

When it is time to serve up your dinner, break apart the chicken pieces so that they are more bite sized. serve over a pasta like Penne, Shells or sometimes I serve it with mashed potatoes for something different.

this dinner goes great with Garlic Cheese bread and a salad.

To change this up a bit add some fresh mushrooms, peas, or even Broccoli would be good. But remember to add this near the end so that the veggies don't get mushy...we don't like over done veggies!!!

Cheers Friends...PS don't forget the great glass of wine to go along side this.
