Chicken and Noodles Italian Style

Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, well trimmed
1 1/2 teaspoons Seasoned Salt
1 teaspoon Thyme Leaves
1/2 teaspoon Oregano Leaves
1 can  (14 1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1 can  (14 1/2 ounces)  diced tomatoes, undrained
3 medium carrots (about 1/2 pound), peeled and thinly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
6 ounces medium egg noodles (about 3 cups)
3/4 cup frozen green peas, thawed

Directions
1.  Rinse chicken and pat dry.  Cut each thigh into 4 pieces and place on plate.  Mix seasonings and

sprinkle over chicken.

 

2.  Place broth, tomatoes, carrots and onion slices in slow cooker.  Stir in seasoned chicken; cover.

 

3.  Cook 8 hours on LOW.  Increase heat to HIGH.  Stir in noodles and peas; cover.  Cook 15 to 20

minutes on HIGH or until noodles are tender but still firm.  Let stand 10 to 15 minutes before serving to allow noodles to absorb the broth.

 

Test Kitchen Tip:   2 1/2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs (6 large) will yield about 1 1/2 pounds when

skinned and boned.

 

IMPORTANT:  For best results, do not remove cover during cooking.
