I inspired this recipe from Cooking Light cookbook. The recipe is called Spiced Chicken and Barley but I made a lot of changes so it became my recipe. I used slow cooker. I love the combination of vegetables and also spices covered with the chicken so it was so flavorful.
Ingredients
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon dried mint flakes
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
2 chicken breast cut chunks
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Cooking spray
1 1/2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 small can corn
1 sweet potato chopped
1 potato chopped
4 carrot chopped
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 cups low-salt chicken broth
1 small can cannelloni beans
1 (14.5-ounce) can tomato sauce
6 tablespoons chopped green onions ( optional )
Preparation Method
Combine the first 7 ingredients in a small bowl, and rub chicken with half of spice mixture.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until chicken is browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet. Put in the Slow cooker.
Mix onion, red bell pepper, potato, sweet potato, carrot, corn and beans in a big bowl. Add salt and mix with rest of the spice mixture.
Add all the mixed vegetables to the slow cooker top of the chicken. Add chicken broth, tomato sauce and soy sauce top of the vegetables.
Set slow cooker low 8 hours. Serve with chopped green onions.
