Expert Tips

Chicken thighs are great for slow cooking because they stay moist and juicy, unlike chicken breasts, which can become dry and tough during the long cooking process.

Instead of the baby-cut carrots, cut regular carrots into 2-inch lengths.

This was rich and delicious. I used an Italian seasoning mix and omitted the snap peas. Family loved it!
