Slow Cooker Chicken Stew image

I like to sprinkle chicken stew with toasted almonds or cashews and serve with hot couscous. Flavored with cinnamon and a touch of sweetness from the apricots, this pretty dish will stand apart from the rest at potlucks, too! -Angela Buchanan, Longmont, Colorado

I've made this stew several times and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and the chicken is always fall-off-the-bone tender. I highly recommend this recipe.

This stew was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra seasonings and it was much better. The chicken was tender and the vegetables were cooked well, but the broth was a bit thin. Overall, it was an okay stew, but I wouldn't make it again.
