Crockpot Chicken Recipes:
Crockpot Chicken with Fresh Vegetables
Although this is one of the easiest crockpot chicken recipes I know, it uses no processed ingredients - just chicken, vegetables and herbs.
This is a colorful and delicious meal! I like to serve it with rice, spooning the veggies and liquid from the crockpot over the rice. It's also good with mashed potatoes.

Be sure to remove the toughest, greenest part of the leeks, and to clean the leeks thoroughly - soil tends to hide between the layers. I thaw frozen corn by placing it in a strainer and running water over it.
2 leeks, sliced and rinsed
6 chicken thighs, bone in and skin removed
2 cups frozen corn
1 large carrot, thinly sliced
2 tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 clove garlic, pressed
1 tsp/5 mL dried oregano (or 2 tsp/10 mL fresh)
1/2 tsp/2 mL dried thyme (or 1 tsp/5 mL fresh)
1/2 tsp/2 mL salt
1/4 tsp/1 mL pepper
Place the leeks in the bottom of the crockpot.
Lay the chicken on top.
Spread the corn and the carrots over the chicken.
In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Spoon this into the crockpot.
Cover the crockpot and cook on LOW for about 7 hours, until chicken is no longer pink inside.
If you need supper to be completely ready when you get home, you need recipes for
complete crockpot meals.
