Indulge in this irresistible creamy slow-cooked chicken masterpiece, bursting with rich flavors after a savory 4.5-hour wait. Patience pays off deliciously!
Ingredients:
  • 4 Hickory Smoked Shortcut Bacon Rindless rashers, chopped
  • 8 Australian Chicken Drumsticks
  • 40.00 ml plain flour
  • 1 brown onion, thinly sliced
  • 300g cup mushrooms, thickly sliced
  • 700g butternut pumpkin, peeled, seeded, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 10.00 gm ground paprika
  • 125ml chicken stock
  • 80ml cream
  • Chopped flat-leaf parsley, to serve
  • Sliced by Laurent Rye Sourdough Vienna bread, toasted, to serve
  • Lemon wedges, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a large non-stick frying pan, cook bacon over medium heat, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes, or until golden. Transfer cooked bacon to a slow cooker.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chicken with flour and toss until evenly coated, shaking off any excess. Heat oil in a pan. Add the chicken in 2 batches and cook, turning occasionally, for 5 minutes or until evenly browned.
  • Place the chicken in the slow cooker along with the onion, garlic, mushrooms, pumpkin, paprika, and stock. Cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 6 hours) until the chicken is tender and easily falls off the bone.
  • Gently incorporate the cream into the chicken mixture cooking in the slow cooker. Garnish with fresh parsley and accompany with sourdough bread and lemon wedges for serving.
