  • 4 medium carrots, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 1 1/2 cups  frozen pearl onions
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 5 - 6 large chicken thighs, skin removed (2-1/4 to 2-1/2 pounds total)
  • 1/2 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon  ground black pepper
  • 1 cup  dry red wine
  • 1/2 cup  reduced-sodium chicken broth

Directions

1. In a 4- to 5-quart slow cooker combine mushrooms, carrots, and onions. Set aside.

Add chicken thighs to skillet, meaty sides down. Cook about 6 minutes or until brown, turning once. Add chicken to cooker.
