This Slow Cooker Chicken Casserole is the BEST EVER! With tender chicken thighs, smoky bacon and chunks of veg this is pure comfort food! Gluten and dairy free and perfect for batch cooking.
Spoon the gluten free flour onto a large plate and add the chicken thighs, turning them to coat completely.
Add the olive oil to a large frying pan and heat on a medium-high heat. Fry the chicken thighs for 1-2 minutes on each side, over a high heat, until browned all over. Remove from the pan and turn the heat down to medium.
Add the bacon lardons to the frying pan and fry for 2-3 minutes until starting to go crispy. Add the chopped onion and baby carrots to the pan and fry for a further 3-4 minutes until starting to brown.
Place the chicken thighs in the slow cooker pan, then add the fried bacon, onions and carrots. Mix together.
Pour in the chicken stock, white wine, mustard, sage and thyme and mix well to combine. Place the lid on and cook on high for 3-4 hours (or low for 6-8 hours) before serving hot.
