Preparation

Step 1

Instructions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dredge the chicken in flour, shaking off any excess. Cook chicken until browned, 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Add onions and salt to the skillet and cook on medium-low, stirring until softened but not browned, about 10 minutes.

Pour onions into slow cooker. Stir in tomato paste, bay leaf, thyme, and sage. Place chicken on top and pour wine over. Close cover and cook for 8-9 hours on low, or 3-4 hours on high.

Mix the cheese with the tablespoon of flour and stir it into the slow cooker. Put it back on high for 30-45 minutes. Stir in parsley and serve.
