Slow Cooker Chicken Supper Recipe

In a 5 to 6 quart slow cooker,layer the first five ingredients in the order listed. Brown the chicken in oil in a frying pan. Place on top of the other ingredients. In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients, pour over the chicken. Do not stir. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 4 hours, or until the vegetables are tender. Chicken and vegetables may be removed and the juices can be thickened in a pan to use for gravy. Return chicken and vegetables to slow cooker and drizzle with gravy. I sometimes use 1/2 package frozen sliced carrots and 1/2 package frozen green beans, thawed (instead of fresh) and layer them on top of the chicken.
