Ingredients:
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 medium onion, chopped
1 package (3 ounces) thinly sliced prosciutto or deli ham, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon diced pimientos
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
hot cooked linguine
grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Cut chicken into serving-size pieces. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Add chicken, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat.
2. In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil in batches. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker.
3. Stir in the broth, tomatoes, mushrooms, onion, prosciutto, pimientos, garlic and Italian seasoning. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 4-1/2 hours or until chicken juices run clear. Serve with a slotted spoon over linguine; sprinkle with cheese. Yield: 6-8 servings.
