Slow Cooker Recipe Weekend

Chookyblue is hosting a slow cooker recipe weekend.  I'm a fan of  slow cookers & had both of mine going during the week, cooking up a 2kg batch of curried sausages & a 1kg batch of chow mien.  The aim of the bigger quantities is to have some go into the freezer.  Today I cranked up the slow cooker with a chicken recipe.


Ingredients
2kg chicken drumsticks
6 slices of bacon - chopped
500gms mixed frozen vegies - thawed
1 large onion - diced
2 potatoes - diced
2 tins of cream of chicken soup
spices to suit taste - I used thyme

Dough
1 generous cup of SR flour - sifted
1 TB butter
a pinch of salt
water
 
 
Place potatoes, onions, thawed vegies, chicken & bacon in dish.  Sprinkle with thyme/spices. Add the soup then cook on low for six & a half hours.

 
If you'd like to add dough to your dish, add a pinch of salt to flour, rub in butter then add enough water to make a dough.  Place into dish one hour prior to finish time.
 
Then enjoy!

Cheers....Jane.
