In Galax, Virginia, Ila Alderman relies on chili powder to spice up this hearty stew brimming with chicken and fresh-tasting veggies. Since it simmers in a slow cooker all day, it's wonderful to have it ready when you walk in the door. Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) italian diced tomatoes, undrained |
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
5 medium carrots, chopped |
3 celery ribs, chopped |
1 large onion, chopped |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
2 cans (4 ounces each) mushroom stems and pieces, drained |
2 low-sodium chicken bouillon cubes |
artificial sweetener equivalent to 2 teaspoons sugar |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 cups cold water |
Directions:
1. In a 5-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 12 ingredients. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir into chicken mixture. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until chicken and vegetables are tender. Yield: 10 servings. |
