Because I am tackling a major chore today (more like all week) I need an easy supper tonight. I am scrubbing and re-finishing all my cabinet doors. As usual, crock pot to the rescue!
I have a large package of chicken thighs in the crock pot, with water, bullion cubes, rosemary, thyme, garlic and pepper. When the chicken is done I will let it cool, strain and cool the juice it cooked in, then clean up the chicken and chop it. Pour the juice into a large pot, add 3-4 carrots, peeled and chopped, 4-5 potatoes, peeled and cubed, a good handful each of frozen peas and frozen corn, simmer till the veggies are done, reduce heat and add the dumplings (the recipe has been posted here before), a teaspoonful at a time, cover and let cook for 20 minutes (no peeking). Add the chicken, stir to combine, then thicken with a little flour or cornstarch. A whole meal in one bowl!
Happy Monday!
