Cook Time 6 hours
Yield 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 6 chicken leg quarters
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 large sweet apples, peeled and cut into wedges
  • 1 large sweet onion, chopped
  • 2 celery ribs, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chardonnay
  • 1 envelope brown gravy mix
  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon each minced fresh oregano, rosemary and thyme

Directions

  1. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Place half of the chicken in a 5-qt. slow cooker. In a bowl, combine the apples, onion and celery; spoon half of the mixture over chicken. Repeat layers.
  2. In the same bowl, whisk wine, gravy mix, garlic and herbs until blended; pour over top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until chicken is tender.
