Tender chicken thighs bathe in a silky broth infused with white wine, thyme, and rosemary. Carrots, celery, and baby potatoes soak up every drop as the slow cooker works its magic, yielding a rich, creamy stew.

  3. Pour in white wine and chicken broth, then season with salt and pepper.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
