That ever-so slightly acidic tang of tomato infuses into tender chicken, in combination with aromatic garlic, onion and the deliciously salty chicken soup mix. That delicious tomato flavour is balanced out with creaminess, making the satisfying meal a high contender for best slow cooker dinners! - Paulene Christie

Note

Cooking cream is a specific type of cream that resists splitting when cooked over long periods. You can buy it with cold creams or long-life shelf varieties.
