One Happy Dog Speaks

I copied this from Taste of Home magazine I found at the doctor’s office and made a couple of changes. It was yummy… enjoy… here is my version that is changed:

Sunday Chicken Stew per vw

1/2 cup Wondra flour (it calls for all-purpose)
1 tsp salt
3 pounds boneless/skinless thighs (it calls for cut up broiler/fryer chicken)
2 tblspn vegetable oil
3 cups chicken broth
3 large carrots, cut into pieces
(it calls for celery but I forgot to buy some, and cooked it without)
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
1 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
(it calls for 1 1/2 cups frozen peas, I used some out of a can)

It calls for dumplings, I used small bite size potatoes pre-boiled then added towards the end.

Directions:
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt and pepper; add chicken, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat. In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil; remove and keep warm. Gradually add broth to the skillet; bring to a boil.

In 5 quart, slow cooker, layer the carrots, (celery) and onions; sprinkle with rosemary. Add the chicken and hotbroth. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or until chicken juices run clear, vegetables are tender and stew is bubbling. Stir in peas and potatoes and continue cooking on high for about 30 minutes.

Yes, I am playing with the WordPress themes. I should be folding laundry, getting the boys lunches ready and finishing the dishes. Instead… I can’t resist changing the look of my blog. I had no idea it was so easy. Ok, it’s not… It took me a couple of days to catch on to widgets and sidebars and where to put the code… but I blame it on the cold I have been suffering from!!! hahahaha. This was the easiest theme to switch. From here, I will look at creating one for Halloween.

Ahhh… to start using my brain for more than working on Addition, sound of little a and little i, and how to move the paper when you cut versus trying to move the scissors. Yep… this is more fun than coming up with ways to get my children enthusiastic for doing homework…
