Slow Cooker Pantry Chicken Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir until onion and garlic have softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker; add onion, garlic, vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, sweet potatoes, quinoa, green onions, mushrooms, curry powder, oregano, pepper, and bay leaf and mix well. Cook on Low until chicken is tender, 7 to 8 hours.
• Discard bay leaf. Remove chicken; shred using 2 forks and place back into the stew, mixing well before serving.

Steps:

• Combine first 14 ingredients in an electric slow cooker.
• Cover with lid and cook on high setting for 4 hours or until carrot is tender.
• Combine the water and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk until blended.
• Add cornstarch mixture and frozen peas or edamame (and tofu, if using) to the slow cooker, stir well.
• Re-cover and cook on high-heat setting an 30 additional minutes.
• Serve with hot cooked rice.
• Note: I don't eat much meat and prefer more vegetables, so I often add extra firm cubed tofu at the last 30 minute mark. Tasty! Also good with small new potatoes added at the beginning, which is another good way to stretch the recipe. :).
