250g mushrooms sliced
250g carrots sliced
2 medium potatoes cut into chunks
1 large stalk of celery, sliced
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, approx 500g weight
1 can chopped tomatoes
300ml chicken stock
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp fresh thyme
1 small sprig rosemary
50g Dried apricots (Optional)​
Method:​

Coat bottom and sides of the slow cooker with non stick cooking spray.

​
Place vegetables in the pot

​
Trim chicken thighs of excess fat and cut into pieces.

​
Add chicken to the pot, followed by herbs, chopped tomatoes, apricots (if used) and chicken
stock

Notes: May also be made with chicken or turkey mince rather than chicken pieces. Like
other casserole dishes it is a good basic soft meal which can be made ahead and frozen
in portions. If using after three months post band or bypass, remember to add a serving​
of crunchy vegetables and not to have too much of the gravy/sauce.
