Chicken In Wine Crock Pot Recipe

Ingredients

2-2.5 lb. chicken (I used 2.5 lb. bag of boneless, skinless chicken thighs from trader joe’s)

½ c. flour

2-3 smoked ham hocks

onions, lots chopped (I used 4)

carrot slices (I used one small bag baby carrots)

bouquet garni (I used 5 sprigs of tarragon from garden, wrapped in cheesecloth - but could use a combo of dried tied up in a double layer of cheese cloth: 1 bay leaf, 2T parsley, 4 t tarragon, 2 T thyme)

4 cups chicken broth

2 cups red wine

½ c water

½ c corn starch

Preparation

Dredge chicken in flour. add everything to very large crock pot (except for water and cornstarch) Cook on high or low until done. Make a paste of water and cornstarch. Add to crock pot, mix well, replace lid, cook for 15 minutes until sauce has thickened. (my crock pot was too full so I had to put it all in a large sauce pot on stove to do this.)
