1 large onion, chopped

2 carrots, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

garlic in stoneware; stir in about half of the salt and pepper; spread mixture

chicken chunks with remaining salt and pepper. Place chicken atop fennel/

onion mixture. Pour chicken broth over top.

3. Cover; cook on High for 1 hour and then on Low for 2 hours.

cook on Low for 10 to 15 minutes. Turn off heat. Stir spinach into chicken/
