Autumn Chicken Stew

The picture doesn't do it justice, but this slow-cooker chicken stew was really delicious. Easy, since it uses cooked chicken and great to switch up according to what leftovers you have in the fridge. Here's how I made it:

1-2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast
2 diced and peeled parsnips
2 large chopped and peeled carrots
2 stalks celery
1 cup apple cider
1 cup drinkable white wine
2 cups chicken broth ( more if you need it)
                                                                                    1 cup frozen peas
                                                                                    1/3 cup cornstarch
                                                                                    1/3 cup powdered milk
                                                                                     Water
                                                                                     Salt and pepper to taste
Toss veg and chicken in slowcooker (except peas) pour in wine, cider and chicken broth, cook on low for 4-6 hours, high for 2-3. Check pot to see if you need more chicken broth. When veg are tender add frozen peas. Mix cornstarch, powdered milk and water together to form a slurry and pour into pot. Allow to cook for another 20-30 min or until peas are thawed. Serves about 6 and makes great leftovers!
