TROY'S SLOW COOKER CHICKEN
This is a delicious chicken recipe that my mother used to make. It takes just minutes to prep, and cooks all day with no worries. The dried beef may be hard to find depending on your location. Ask the butcher at your market. I serve mine over egg yolk-free noodles; however, it's great over any pasta, rice, mashed potatoes...you name it. Put a chicken breast on the noodles, and pour the sauce over the chicken and noodles to serve.

Steps:
- Grease the inside of a slow cooker, and lay the pieces of dried beef into the bottom of the cooker.

Mix the soup, sour cream, and flour together in a bowl until the mixture is smooth, and pour it over the bacon-wrapped chicken. Cover the slow cooker, and cook on Medium setting for 4 to 6 hours. If your cooker only has 2 settings, cook on High for 2 to 3 hours and finish on Low for the remaining 2 to 3 hours.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of chicken: Dark meat, such as thighs or drumsticks, is best for slow cooking, as it has more flavor and will stay moist. If using boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
- Brown the chicken first: Browning the chicken before slow cooking helps to develop flavor and color. Simply sear the chicken in a hot skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
- Add plenty of vegetables: Vegetables not only add flavor and nutrients to your dish, but they also help to keep the chicken moist. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
- Use a flavorful cooking liquid: The cooking liquid is essential for adding flavor to your chicken. Good options include chicken broth, beef broth, vegetable broth, tomato juice, or a combination of these liquids.
- Season the chicken well: Don't be afraid to season your chicken liberally with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken and the dish as a whole.
- Cook the chicken on low for best results: Cooking the chicken on low for 6-8 hours will allow it to become fall-off-the-bone tender. If you're short on time, you can cook the chicken on high for 3-4 hours, but it may not be as tender.
Conclusion:
Slow cooker chicken is an easy and delicious way to make a hearty and flavorful meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious chicken dish that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying meal, give slow cooker chicken a try.
