Crock pot chicken stew recipe

This is one of the easiest toss and go meals. I love to use leftover chicken and make Crock Pot Chicken Stew. The kids think they are eating a new meal and it is a win all around.

Since everything you need for dinner is in the crock pot, there isn’t much left to do but just enjoy dinner when you get home. The recipe is packed with chicken and lots of vegetables.

Don’t you love an easy one pot meal? We sure do!

Make sure you have a good slow cooker for this chicken stew crock pot recipe.

There are some really good ones on sale right now. If you work all day, you may want to invest in a programmable crock pot.

They are awesome because you can set them to start later, or to stop and switch to warm once the dinners are ready. Amazon has some on sale right now too.

I also really like this crockpot.  Now, it’s not programmable but it’s so handy!

It has the feature where you can lock the lid down.

That feature is so nice for when you take meals to potlucks or need to transport the meal somewhere.

Now if you want to save yourself even more time then I really recommend these Crockpot liners. They make clean up a breeze.

Instead of scrubbing and washing the pot, you can just toss the liner. It is practically no clean up.

Tip for slow cooker chicken stew:

This recipe like many calls for diced onions. Another time saving tip is to use a small food chopper or food processor to quickly and easily chop the onions.

If you do not have one of these, I highly recommend them. They are such a time saver and you can get the veggies really fine if you have children that are picky.

I usually just chop the entire vegetable and freeze what I don’t need. It’s so nice to be able to just take the diced onion out of the freezer for recipes.

This is how I meal prep. It’s so quick and easy and helps get dinner on the table fast.

Learn and  how to freeze onions and also how to freeze peppers to save so much time in the kitchen!

Stretch your meat budget with this stew recipe.

With the recipe only calling for 2 chicken breasts, this meal is very easy on the budget. The potatoes carrots and other ingredients really help to stretch this delicious meal.

You can also easily substitute chicken thighs for the chicken breasts. We have even used a mix of the two and it was delicious.

Use what you have and make this amazing and tasty meal. It is so delicious!

We love this recipe and it has always turned out great.  You can even use leftover chicken and we do this frequently.

I love cooking once and eating twice. Yeah!

I often just use what I have in the freeze or what is on sale. You can truly make this recipe your own and customize it for your family.

This is how I keep our grocery budget reasonable. By shopping when things are on sale I save money on groceries and it really helps our budget.

I keep recipes like this on the regular menu plan rotation because I know the entire family will enjoy and it is easy to use what I have.

    Hello! Thankyou For the recipe. I add more bay leaves and garlic but that’s because I love that stuff. I made this for my boyfriend’s family and they say it’s the best they’ve had. One
    Question for you though,if you put the chicken in to cook the entire time then at one point you say shred the chicken and put it back in or you just supposed to fish out all the chicken and shred it and then put it back in my missing something. Thank you!
