  • Prepare the Ingredients: Start by chopping your onion, garlic, carrots, potatoes, and celery. Gather your chicken and seasonings.
  • Layer in the Slow Cooker: Lay the root vegetables (potatoes, carrots, celery) in the bottom of the slow cooker first. Next, place the chicken on top of the vegetables.
