Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work well in this stew. If you use bone-in chicken, you'll need to remove the bones before serving.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: If you're using a small slow cooker, you may need to cook the chicken in batches.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor to this stew. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken overcooks easily, so be careful not to cook it for too long. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: This stew is delicious served with rice, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles.

Conclusion:

This slow cooker creamy herbed chicken stew is an easy and delicious meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
