I love soups & stews and what better way to make them than in the crockpot? Dump everything in before leaving the house in the morning and return home to a wonderful dinner!! If leaving more than 4 hours I'd recommend cooking on low.
Spicy Chicken StewIngredients2 potatoes (about 1 1/2 lb.), peeled and cut into chunks (3 1/3 cups)
1 (10 oz.) package frozen sweet corn
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks (1 cup)
1 onion, thickly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (12.5 oz.) jar salsa
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon chile powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast, halved (about 1 lb.)
4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 10.5 oz.)
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
PreparationPlace potatoes, corn, celery, carrots, onion and garlic in slow cooker. Stir in salsa, salt, cumin, chile powder and pepper. Distribute chicken evenly on top of vegetables and pour chicken broth over chicken. Cover slow cooker and cook stew on high for 4 hours.
Transfer chicken to a plate and shred with two forks into bite-size chunks; return to slow cooker. Serve warm topped with tortilla chips & dollop of sour cream. Warm & yummy! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />
