Fall weather is in the air and I have dug my slow cooker out from under my cupboard. After all it makes meals while I am homeschooling my kids with very little help from me once it gets going. This slow cooker chicken stew is perfect for busy fall days.

This started off as needing to get something started for a day spent working on our house. Because we have harvested a lot of from our garden already we had an abundance of fresh vegetables to use for this, which was great, because I forgot to pick up chicken last week and need something to fill us up after a busy day.
This is super easy to make, and perfect for making for busy days or even just homeschool days.
What you need:
- 3 chicken breast – whole or cut into bite sized pieces
- 5 potatoes
- 5 carrots
- 2 cups water
- 2 tsp chicken bouillon
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 cup green beans – halved
- 2 tbsp butter
- 4 tbsp flour
How to make Slow Cooker Chicken Stew:
Toss some chicken breasts, diced potatoes, and diced carrots into your slow cooker. Add chicken bouillon and water, salt and pepper to taste.
Set your slow cooker to low for 6 hours or high for 3.
An hour before serving add in green beans, and corn. You don’t want them to get mushy by being in your crock pot all day. If you are only cooking it for the 3 hours, throw them in at the beginning too.
Mix together melted butter and flour, over heat or not, and slowly mix into your slow cooker about 20 minutes before serving.
This chicken stew is delicious, filling and warm in your belly. Add some fresh rolls to make it even better.
