Instructions

  • Spray the slow cooker insert with cooking oil.
  • Add the chicken, broth, carrots, celery, onion, potatoes, pepper, garlic, and poultry seasoning to the pot.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or on high for 4 hours - or until the potatoes are tender.
  • Remove the chicken from the cooker and shred. You can do this just by pulling it with two forks. Then add it back to the cooker.
  • Add the heavy cream and peas - stir.
  • Cover and cook for another 10-15 minutes or until the peas are softened before serving.

Notes

  • Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • You can also add mushrooms, broccoli, or any other vegetables you like.
  • If your stew is too thin you can add a cornstarch slurry or some instant potatoes to thicken it up.
