Chicken Perket Aka Croatian Chicken Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Set a 6 quart crock pot on high; spray inside with nonstick cooking spray.
• Begin layering ingredients inside - tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, ¼ cup flour sprinkled evenly over all, 1 tablespoon garlic. Place in the chicken breast pieces and spread the remaining ¼ cup of flour over them. Add the mushrooms, remaining garlic; then evenly sprinkle over the black pepper and paprika. Pour the stock and white wine over the top.
• Cover and cook for 3 and ½ hours; remove chicken and 1/4 of the vegetables. Use a stand or immersion blender to puree the remaining vegetables, and thicken the liquid. Return the chicken and reserved vegetables to the pot; cover and cook for another half hour before serving. Also during that last half hour, prepare the pasta to desired tenderness; place a serving into bowl and top with sauce, chicken and some vegetables.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium to medium-high heat. Saute onion, carrots, and celery until they begin to become tender and caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute. Season vegetables with a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper while cooking.
• Stir in butter to melt; stir flour into the veggies and butter until evenly distributed and veggies are coated. Pour in broth and milk, stirring until well combined. Turn the heat up and bring the mixture to a simmer. Add thyme, salt, pepper, and turmeric. Stir in peas and corn. Stir in chicken to combine and allow to simmer, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings before serving.
