Ruthann Martin from Louisville, Ohio makes this slow-cooked sensation with chicken, vegetables and seasonings. It's a hearty, homespun dish that satisfies the biggest appetites, she says. Ingredients:
4 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 celery rib, cut into 2-inch pieces |
2 cups cut fresh green beans (2-inch pieces) |
5 small red potatoes, quartered |
1 broiler/fryer chicken (3 to 3-1/2 pounds), cut up |
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled |
1-1/2 cups hot water |
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
pinch pepper |
Directions:
1. In a 5-qt. slow cooker, layer the first seven ingredients in order listed. In a small bowl, combine the water, bouillon, salt, thyme, basil and pepper; pour over the top. Do not stir. 2. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until vegetables are tender and chicken juices run clear. Remove chicken and vegetables. Thicken cooking juices for gravy if desired. Yield: 4 servings. |
