Sprite Chicken Crock Pot Style

*12 frozen Chicken Tenders, thawed in refrigerator
*small bag of Baby Carrots or 1/2 bag of large
*1 medium Onion
*2-3 Cloves Minced Garlic or 1/4 teaspoon dry Minced Garlic or to taste
*6 medium Yellow or Yukon Gold Potatoes sliced
*1 can of Sprite

*Red Pepper Flakes to taste ( I think these are hot so I use about 1/4 teaspoon total and sprinkle a little on the top of each layer.)

Layer the above ingredients in crock pot. The last layer being the potatoes and pour the Sprite over the potatoes with a few onion pieces.

4-6 hours in crock pot depending on your crock pot cooking time. (Mine was cooked in 4 hours on high.)

Salt and Pepper to taste.

This is a quick drink we made with our Sunday dinner.

Mix frozen can of drink mix of your choice, mix as directed on can and add 2 cans of lemon Lime Soda of your choice.

Top with whipped cream topping and a piece of strawberry if desired.

Enjoy!

Broth:

*1 cup chicken Broth with less sodium
*1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
*1 1/2 cups white grape Juice
*1 Yellow Onion, Chopped
*1 teaspoon sea salt if Desired

Pre-seasoned Chicken Thighs from Macey’s Gorcery Store or add your own seasonings to raw Thighs.

Seared Chicken Thighs. Sear in 1-2 Tablespoons olive oil on medium heat 5-6 minutes on each side. Sear only three at a time and use splatter cover.

Roughly chop potatoes and place in bowl of water, drain and then add to crockpot.

I used a crock pot liner and then added Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes and add the broth.

Place Seared Chicken on top of Potatoes. Then tuck in 6 cloves of Garlic, 3 Bay Leaves and 4 Sprigs of Thyme. (These are for flavoring only remove after cooking.)

Optional: 1 can Diced Tomatoes, 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste and 2 teaspoons Chopped Parsley.

Cook 4 – 6 hours on low depending on your slow cooker instructions.

Enjoy.
