Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation This Might Turn Out Good

Saw a recipe in the paper for garlic chicken in a slow cooker. Decided to switch it around a bit.

The recipe calls for browning chicken pieces in a skillet after marinating with red wine vinegar, EVOO, sugar and crushed garlic. Then in a slow cooker, putting the chicken over a chopped onion, 2 tsp thyme, 6 cloves of garlic, halved, S + P. Then mixing a cup of white wine with 1/3 cup of flour and pouring over the top, let it go for 3 - 5 hours.

I had two large hunks of turkey in the freeze, leg and half a breast. (Appropriate, as I applied for my turkey permit today...LOL) Marinated them overnight in some EVOO, italian dressing, balsamic vinegar, sugar, crushed garlic. My red wine vinegar was bad.

Browned them, and in my large DO (which I usually use solely over a fire, but not lately) put them over the onion, used 1 tsp of thyme and 1 of majoram, then did the flour/wine thing. It's in the oven at 275, I figure it should be done in 4 hours, maybe less.

it sure looks good!

I can almost smell it from here. Thanks GOD you did not use margarine to brown it though.

Waiting for the reviews! Looks good from here.

Yummmmmm!!

Nothing as good as cooking in a Dutch Oven!

Turned out OK. Frankly, instead of the wine and thyme, I think I would have preferred savory seasoning, maybe some sage, and just used water to mix with the flour, for a good turkey flavor. The gravy turned out just right and would make for a great open face turkey sandwich.

No margarine was harmed in the making of this dish.
