Ingredients:
8 ounce(s) cremini mushrooms, stems trimmed and halved if large |
4 carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1/3 cup(s) all-purpose flour |
2 sprig(s) fresh thyme |
1 bay leaf |
1 1/2 pound(s) boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 8) |
kosher salt and black pepper |
1 sheet puff pastry (half a 17.3-ounce package), thawed |
1 cup(s) frozen peas |
1 cup(s) frozen green beans |
1/3 cup(s) heavy cream |
Directions:
1. In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, mix together the mushrooms, carrots, onion, flour, thyme, bay leaf, and 1/2 cup water. Place the chicken on top; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. 2. Cover and cook until the chicken and vegetables are tender, on low for 7 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours (this will shorten total recipe time). 3. Thirty minutes before serving, heat oven to 425° F. Using a 41/2-inch cutter or large glass, cut the pastry into 4 circles. Place on a baking sheet and bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. 4. Ten minutes before serving, add the peas, green beans, cream, and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the chicken mixture and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high or low until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more. To serve, place the chicken mixture in bowls and top with the pastry rounds. |
