I like to sprinkle this chicken stew with toasted almonds or cashews and serve with hot couscous. Flavored with cinnamon and a touch of sweetness from the apricots, this stew tastes like you fussed. It's great for potlucks, too!
Ingredients:
2-1/4 pounds bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
1 large onion, chopped
2 medium carrots, sliced
3/4 cup unsweetened apple juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup chopped dried apricots
hot cooked couscous
Directions:
1. Place the chicken, onion and carrots in a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker coated with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine the apple juice, garlic, salt, cinnamon and pepper; pour over vegetables.
2. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until chicken is tender.
3. Remove chicken from slow cooker; shred meat with two forks. Skim fat from cooking juices; stir in apricots. Return shredded chicken to slow cooker; heat though. Serve with couscous. Yield: 6 servings.
