Notes
1To serve gently remove carrots and chicken to serving plates. Use a slotted spoon to lift out the potatoes and add them to serving plate. Give the sauce a quick whisk then ladle that over serving plates.
2Would be lovely also served with a crusty bread roll.
3I kept the potato chunks fairly small chunks to ensure they cooked through
4Would also work with boneless chicken and you could add other vegetables if you wished
5A great one pot dinner for the whole family to enjoy

I made this the other night, it was a real hit with my husband. I used 12 wings (albeit large ones) as that was all I had, otherwise I followed the recipe. We had so much I was able to make the left overs into pie filling! Will definitely be doing this again! Thanks so much Paulene <3

Yummy!! Cooked this tonight and it was a hit with the whole family including miss fussy 7 year old. I didnโt have Dutch carrots, just peeled and chopped 2 carrots and threw them in with the potatoes.

This simple yet tasty meal went down a treat. The only thing left on the plate were the bones! I made some slight adjustments to the dish. I added 2 cloves garlic minced & 1 chicken stock cube. I swapped the Dutch carrots for regular ones and layer them on the bottom of the slow cooker with the leaks. Instead of cooking potatoes with the dish itself, I served them on the side as mash. Another dish that I think will be making a regular appearance

Which cut of chicken did you use Berny? Some are more dry than others. However I’d suggest your cooker needs a little less time if that was your result. Try taking an hour or so off next time ๐

I tried this recipe for the first time last night.
Chicken was a little dry wonder why? Sauce was a little rich for me, but Iโll certainly make it again

I love this recipe, itโs one of my favourites, & I occasionally do it using sausages instead of chicken.. I donโt add any potato though, I do them separately as a side ๐

Looking forward to having this tonight as we are all sick. I used pieces of chicken potato celery as there were no leeks carrots and going to add some peas and corn later . Doubled the sauce

Use any sachet of your favourite chicken gravy
The all usually make up to 1 cup of gravy (but in this cased use it dry no water added)
