    • 1/2 cup dry white wine (e.g., Sauvignon Blanc)
    • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
    • 3 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, diced
    • 2 large carrots, sliced
    • 2 celery stalks, chopped
    • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 tsp dried rosemary
    • 1 bay leaf
    • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
    • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional:
    • 1/2 cup coconut milk or heavy cream
    • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Prepare Ingredients:
    • Chop the vegetables and mince the garlic.
  • Layer the Ingredients:
    • Add the diced potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, and garlic to the bottom of your slow cooker.
    • Place the chicken thighs or breasts on top of the vegetables.
  • Season and Add Liquid:
    • Sprinkle the dried thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper over the chicken and vegetables.
    • Pour in the white wine and chicken broth. Add the bay leaf.
  • Cook in Slow Cooker:
    • Cover and cook on low for 7–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
  • Shred the Chicken:
    • Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
  • Add Creaminess (Optional):
    • Stir in the coconut milk or heavy cream for a creamy consistency. Let the stew cook for an additional 15 minutes on low.

  • For a thicker stew, mash a few potato pieces or add a slurry of cornstarch and water during the final cooking stage.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
