Jean Pare Best Chicken Dish

From ozrocks 13 years ago

This is a gorgeous slow cooker recipe from Jean Pare. It is called the BEST CHICKEN DISH. We love it.

cooking oil 1 tbsp. 15 mL shopping list
Lean ground chicken 1 lb. 454 g shopping list
Can of chickpeas 19 oz. 540 mL rinsed & drained shopping list
Finely chopped onion 1 cup 250 mL shopping list
salt 1/4 tsp. 1 mL shopping list
sun-dried tomato pesto 1/3 cup 75 mL shopping list
all-purpose flour 1 tbsp. 15 mL shopping list
Can of diced tomatoes (with juice) 14 oz. 398 mL shopping list
balsamic vinegar 1 tbsp. 15 mL shopping list
Granulated sugar 1/2 tsp. 2 mL shopping list
salt 1/4 tsp. 1 mL shopping list
Chopped red pepper 4 cups 1 L shopping list
Finely chopped zucchini (with peel) 1 cup 250 mL ( I usually just eyeball the zucchini and pepper - I don't think I have ever added all 4 cups of peppers ). shopping list

Heat cooking oil in large frying pan on medium. Add ground chicken. Scramble-fry for 5 to 10 minutes until no longer pink. Drain. Transfer to 3 1/2 to 4 quart (3.5 to 4 L) slow cooker.
Add chickpeas, onion and first amount of salt. Stir.
Stir pesto into flour in small bowl until smooth. Add next 4 ingredients. Stir well. Pour over chicken mixture. Stir well. Cover. Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours.
Add red pepper and zucchini. Stir. Cover. Cook on High for 30 to 45 minutes until red pepper is tender-crisp. Serves 8.
I don't think I have ever cooked it for 8 hours, maybe 3 hours ish and still it was great. I think the longer you cook it though the softer the chickpeas will be. YUMMY!

Reckon you're right about the cooking time. Maybe precook the garbanzos and adjust some of the quantities. Thanks. RJ
