Can anyone help me come up with something for chicken breasts and slow cooker please?

[Neena28]

Hi all

I have chicken breast, potato and onion, carrots, garlic, seasoning stuff and a slow cooker (and some other bits but not loads)...it's 12.25, is there anything I can do with that for tonight before 5.30pm in a slow cooker?

Don't want to waste the chicken or freeze it really but am a bit stuck for ideas. Wondered if any slow cooker pros could help as I am really struggling with it.

Thank you!

Hi Neena...your lovely chicken breasts will go tough if you cook them in the slow cooker. Best to use chicken on the bone for the slow cooker. Potato's don't do very well in slow cooker either...
That said...I'd par boil the potato's, chop the carrots, onion and garlic and the chicken...sliced...throw it all in the slow cooker with maybe a tin of tomatoes and whatever herbs you have, bay,basil,turmeric or curry. $ to 6 Hours should do it. Oh...add a bit of salt before serving.

oops 4 to 6 hours. x

How about a quick chicken stew (would probbly take 30-45 mins) - but not in the slow cooker? You'd need to add tin of toms or you could turn it into a curry if you have paste.
