CROCKPOT ORANGE CINNAMON CHICKEN

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 pounds chicken, cut into serving pieces
1 cup chicken broth, homemade or canned
1/4 pound butter -- * see note
2 cups orange juice
1 cup raisins
salt and fresh black pepper -- to taste
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons flour

*NOTE: I made this 9/4/96. Used 8 chicken thighs, removed the skin,
left out the butter and skipped the browning step. I also used
cornstarch instead of the flour and added 4 cloves of minced garlic
to the orange juice mixture. It was a delicious dish with just a hint
of each flavor coming through--Lynn.
Heat butter in large skillet, and brown chicken. Remove
chicken pieces to slow cooker as they brown. Combine all other
ingredients, except flour, mix well and pour over chicken. Cover pot,
turn on LOW and cook 4-6 hours, or until chicken is tender. Remove
1 cup of sauce from the pot and combine with flour, mixing well.
Return sauce - flour mixture to pot. Turn pot on HIGH, and cook
additional half hour. Formatted by Lynn Thomas dcqp82a.
