Braised Chicken with Potatoes
Braise chicken thighs in the slow cooker along with Yukon gold potatoes and frozen artichoke hearts for a hearty stew-like dinner.
How to Make It
Step 1
Rinse chicken and pat dry; season with salt and pepper. Spread flour in a shallow bowl and dredge each piece of chicken on both sides. In a large pan over medium-high heat, warm olive oil. Add chicken and fry, turning once, until golden brown on both sides (but still raw inside), 8 minutes. Transfer Friday chicken to a slow cooker.
Step 2
Reduce heat on stove to medium and add wine to pan (it will steam vigorously). With a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned bits that cling to pan. Bring to a boil, then pour liquid into slow cooker.
Step 3
Add broth, potatoes, artichoke hearts and garlic to slow cooker. Peel two 3-inch strips of lemon peel and add to slow cooker, along with juice from lemon.
Step 4
Turn slow cooker to high. Cook until chicken and potatoes are cooked through and tender, 2 hours and 15 minutes. Serve hot.

Smelled so good but was pretty bland, I agree with the review that the potatoes were not close to being done either. Would recommend cutting them no bigger than half inch cubes.

Horrible. Flavorless. Like bad hospital food. And the potatoes were still undercooked after 2.5 hours.

This worked really well. I used a bit more chicken, broth, and wine. Also, for some reason the can of artichoke hearts I bought just didn't seem right. Instead I used 8oz of mushrooms and added some rosemary. Likely to make again

Not sure where to find frozen artichoke hearts. I ended up using a can packed in water instead...

Tasty; liked the artichoke hearts and lemon in it. I think that I added too many potatoes though; next time I'll add less potatoes and more sauce.

Loved, loved, loved this. Incredibly easy, inexpensive, and so elegant. This will definitely be on regular rotation in our house, and is worthy of informal dinners without a doubt.
