Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen This easy stew of tender chicken and sweet spring vegetables is delicious over egg noodles (as pictured), but would be equally tasty over rice, or with crusty bread or a flaky biscuit topping.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, whisk together the wine, flour, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

  2. Add the carrots, celery, onion, and chicken and toss to combine. Cook, covered, until the chicken is cooked through and easily pulls apart, 5 to 6 hours on low or 3 to 4 hours on high.

  3. Twenty-five minutes before serving, prepare the noodles according to package directions. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid, drain the noodles, and return them to the pot. Add the oil, mustard, 2 tablespoons of the reserved water and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and toss to coat (adding more water if the pasta seems dry). Toss with the tarragon.

  4. Gently fold the peas into the stew and cook, covered, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve over the noodles and sprinkle with additional tarragon, if desired.

Why this Spring Chicken Stew works for PCOS

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Spring Chicken Stew that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
