Pinterest Night has come again. Week 4, and we are back to my choice.
I chose a meal that let us break out the slow cooker again.
Slow Cooker Chicken and Mushrooms.
Once again, the original post was lacking in any kind of back story.
The food looked good however, so I decided to go for it.
I am pleased that I did. It was a good meal, but you need to plan the day before
that you are going to make it. It takes about 7 hours total.
If you are a fan of mushrooms, onions, and chicken, this recipe is a must for you.
One thing I will say about it, is that our "sauce" didn't really thicken very much,
so I would go with just a bit more corn starch.
You may notice that our recipe says boneless chicken breast, while the original called for bone-in.
Use which ever you would prefer.
We had some extra boneless breasts on hand, so we went with those.
Came out perfectly fine that way.
We decided to serve it with some rice pilaf. I would definitely recommend it.
The plate as a whole fit nicely together.
Should you happen to get some sauce on your pilaf, no big deal; tastes great. ^.-
Adding some green beans to it would also be good.
Let us know what you choose for sides!
Until next time; Eat Well and Live Well!
