Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Stew



I was craving chicken pot pie today, so I came up with this pretty easy meal to prepare. You can really use any kinds of vegetables. For anything chicken-based, you want to stick with carrots, potatoes, celery and onions. To thicken it up, mix together sour cream, flour and water. We served this with flaky biscuits.


Ingredients

  • 2 (32 oz.) cartons chicken broth
  • 4 (10 oz.) cans cooked chicken, drained
  • 6 small potatoes, pealed & diced
  • 7 carrots, sliced
  • 7 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 tsp. thyme
  • 1 tsp. parsley
  • 1 tsp. celery salt
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. pepper
  • 8 oz. sour cream
  • 1 cup flour
  • ¼ cup water

Directions

  1. Set slow cooker to low.
  2. Add chicken, potatoes, carrots, celery, peas, seasonings & chicken broth.
  3. Cook for 6 hours, or until vegetables are tender.
  4. An hour before serving, in a medium bowl, mix together sour cream, flour & water, and whisk into stew. This makes it thick and creamy.
  5. Let cook for an additional hour.
  6. Serve with biscuits and enjoy.
