Creamy Country-style Chicken Stew

It's fall, y'all, and that can only mean one thing—it's time for some homemade country-style comfort food! Today, I am thrilled to share with you my mouthwatering creamy country-style chicken stew recipe. Fall is hands down my favorite season, with its crisp air and stunning foliage. It's the ideal time to whip up some hearty and delicious comfort foods that will warm your body and soul. Get ready to indulge in a bowl of pure coziness with this delectable stew!

Ingredients:

  • 4 pounds (about 16 pieces) of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into chunks

  • 2 tablespoons of melted butter

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 3 cloves of minced garlic

  • 2 celery stalks, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons of smoked paprika

  • 1 tablespoon of soul seasoning

  • 4 tablespoons of powdered chicken bouillon

  • 3 cups of chicken broth

  • 2 cups of evaporated milk

  • 2 carrots, sliced

  • 6 to 8 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks

  • 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) of flour

  • Seasoning salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

In a large crockpot, add the melted butter, diced onion, minced garlic, and chopped celery. Then give the mixture a stir. Add the chicken thighs and season with smoked paprika, soul seasoning, powdered chicken bouillon, and seasoning salt and freshly ground black pepper.


Pour in 3 cups of chicken broth and stir in 2 cups of evaporated milk.


Allow the chicken mixture to cook for 4 to 6 hours on the highest setting with the lid on, or cook for about 8 to 10 hours on the lowest setting.


Once the chicken has cooked through, take the meat out of the crockpot and cut it into chunks, or shreds.


Begin by peeling and slicing 6 to 8 potatoes into chunks, as well as slicing 2 carrots. Then add them to the crockpot.


If preferred, you can add the potatoes and carrots before cooking the chicken. However, I recommend waiting until midway through the cooking process to prevent the potatoes and carrots from becoming too mushy. If using canned vegetables, add them towards the end of cooking and adjust the cooking time accordingly.


Return the chicken back to the crockpot. Set the crockpot to the low setting and allow the stew to simmer until the root vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork.


To prepare the thickening agent for the stew, combine 4 tablespoons of flour with 1 cup of the cooked chicken broth in a bowl. Whisk the mixture until it is smooth and free of any lumps. Pour the slurry into the crockpot and stir thoroughly to incorporate it into the stew.


Simmer for about 30 minutes more to allow the stew to thicken and cook the flour, stirring occasionally.


Serve hot and enjoy!

It may sound fancy, but it's actually pretty simple and fun. Let's dive in! What You'll Need: First things first, you'll need some rockwool cubes . These are like little sponges that help your plants grow strong and healthy. You'll also need some vegetable seeds, a tray to hold the cubes, and water. I personally use these hydroponic grow trays with dome lids. Step 1: Soak the Cubes Before you plant your seeds, you'll need to soak the rockwool cubes in water. This helps them absorb moisture and provides a good environment for your plants to grow. Step 2: Plant Your Seeds Once your cubes are nice and soaked, it's time to plant your seeds. Make a little hole in the top of each cube and drop a couple of seeds in. Some seeds are so tiny and I generally end up planting more than two in each cube. ...
