Instructions

Place chicken breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add chicken broth, carrots, potatoes, onion, celery, garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours, until chicken and vegetables are tender.
Remove chicken, shred with forks, and return to the slow cooker.
Stir in frozen peas and cook for another 15 minutes.
(Optional) For thicker stew, mix cornstarch with water to form a slurry, add to stew, and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For extra flavor, try using chicken thighs instead of breasts.

Add a creamy twist with a splash of heavy cream or coconut milk at the end.

Customize with your favorite veggies like sweet potatoes, green beans, or corn.

Spice it up with chili flakes, cayenne, or diced jalapeños.

Leftovers store well and taste even better the next day!
