Remove from the freezer and leave to defrost completely. Once defrosted, pour into a slow cooker along with the cup of water. Season well and cook for 3 hours on high or 5 hours on low. 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, pour in the cream. Serve over pasta or with mash and veggies.
Lovely easy recipe but I think the cooklng times are mixed up.
Thanks sue, have made changes now
Whoops, I see you gave already changed it 😃!
Do you chop the leek up or put it in whole and remove?
Made it yesterday and we both loved it. I added in mushrooms and then some spinach at the end. Very tasty.
Hi, are the cooking times on this recipe the wrong way round, should it be 3 hours on high and 5 on low?
yes sorry it is meant to say 3 hours on high or 5 on low, having issues with making changes on the website. Happy batching!
Made this today and it was delicious! It was so easy to just put everything in the slow cooker with no pre-cooking required. The chicken was very tender, the tarragon came through and the sauce was thick and creamy. Can’t wait to cook it again!
My chicken is currently in the freezer at the moment. I have bought everything else fresh and can’t wait to bung it all in the slow cooker! Can’t wait to try it!
Wonderful, hope it goes down well!
Think you might have got the low and high settings crossed? I think it should be 3 hours on high or 5 hours on low?
yes sorry it is meant to say 3 hours on high or 5 on low, having issues with making changes on the website. Happy batching!
Are the timings wrong here ?
yes sorry it is meant to say 3 hours on high or 5 on low, having issues with making changes on the website. Happy batching!
Cooked this tonight – absolutely gorgeous! Can you freeze the leftovers? I used crême fraiche in place of the double cream. Thanks.
brilliant! Yes you can as long as the chicken hasn’t been frozen before. That sounds delicious!
Can you make it in the slow cooker then freeze?
Yes you can! slow cook from fresh and then leave to cool and freeze x
