Slow Cooker 5-Ingredient Amish Autumn Chicken
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 450g baby potatoes, halved
- 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into thick chunks
- 1 packet onion soup mix
- 1 tin (300g) condensed cream of chicken soup
Method
-
- Lightly grease the inside of the slow cooker for easier cleanup, then scatter the halved potatoes and carrot chunks evenly across the base.
- Arrange the chicken thighs on top of the vegetables, skin side up, laying them out in a single flat layer as much as possible.
- In a small bowl, blend the onion soup mix with the condensed cream of chicken soup until smooth, then spread this evenly over the chicken.
- Cover with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours, until the chicken is beautifully soft and the vegetables are fork-tender, with the meat almost falling off the bone.
- Spoon some of the juices from the base of the slow cooker over the chicken and vegetables before serving, either plated up or straight from the pot for a relaxed, family-style meal.
