In every family there are often some dishes that are cooked year round regardless of season. At our home, this Slow Cooker Chicken Stew is one of them. For us, this is comfort food and any time is a good time for this warm, delicious, and comforting stew. Sometimes I cook it on the stove but if I remember to thaw the chicken the night before, I like to cook it in the slow cooker.

Slow Cooker Chicken Stew Using Pantry and Refrigerator Staples

This recipe calls for onions, garlic, potatoes, carrots, and celery which are common pantry and refrigerator staples. If you grow your own herbs in the warmer months, use fresh thyme. In the colder months, dried thyme will do just fine. The bone-in chicken breasts can easily be substituted with chicken thighs or whatever cut of chicken you prefer.

Browning for a Richer Flavor

Browning the chicken and vegetables give a richer flavor and color to the dish. I know it is an extra step but trust me, it is totally worth the effort. After the initial preparation, you can leave the slow cooker to do the rest of the work. Go do other things secure with the knowledge that dinner will be ready 4 hours later.
