Alfredo Chicken Stew

Another mouth-watering recipe from Jenn over at A Cook’s Quest. I know it seems a bit heavy for summer, but I just made this recipe and had to share it with all of you. Sooo good! Thanks Jenn!

Alfredo Chicken Stew

1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken (thighs or breasts), cut into strips
4 cups diced potatoes
1/2 cup diced onion
1 jar of your favorite Alfredo sauce (or you can make your own)
1 tsp Italian Seasoning (or you can make your own with basil, oregano and parsley)
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 c parmesean cheese
2 cups frozen broccoli

Combine sauce, Italian seasoning and garlic powder in a small bowl.

Layer chicken, then potatoes, onion and the sauce in your crockpot.  Repeat layers ending with your sauce.  Top with the cheese and cook 4-6 hours on high heat or 6-8 hours on low or until your chicken is cooked through and your potatoes are tender.  During the last 30 minutes, add the broccoli and allow to cook until fork tender.

**If you want a soup, add 1 cup of chicken stock to thin the stew.
