Ingredients:
- 900 g Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 large Yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 large Carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 stalks Celery, sliced
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 950 ml high-quality chicken stock
- 1 tsp Dried thyme
- 1 tsp Dried rosemary, crushed
- 2.5 g Turmeric
- 5 g Salt
- 2 g Black pepper
- 450 g Thick cut frozen egg noodles
- 240 ml Heavy cream
- 150 g Frozen peas
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions:
- Place the 900 g of chicken thighs at the bottom of the slow cooker in a single layer. Scatter the diced onion, sliced carrots, celery, and minced garlic over the meat.
- Whisk the thyme, rosemary, turmeric, salt, and pepper into the 950 ml of chicken stock. Pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetables until the meat is fully submerged.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours. You are looking for the chicken to be fork tender and the carrots to be soft but not disintegrated.
- Remove the lid and use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Stir in the 450 g of frozen egg noodles. Increase the heat to HIGH if you were using the low setting. Cook for 20-30 minutes until the noodles are tender and the sauce has thickened significantly.
- Pour in the 240 ml of heavy cream and add the 150 g of frozen peas. Stir gently to combine.
- Taste the sauce. Adjust with more salt or pepper if needed. Wait until the sauce is glossy and coats the back of a spoon before serving.
- Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the top just before plating to provide a burst of fresh flavor.
