Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['low_sodium'], recipe: combine first 14 ingredients in an electric slow cooker. cover with lid and cook on high setting for 4 hours or until carrot is tender. combine the water and cornstarch in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk until blended. add cornstarch mixture and frozen peas or edamame (and tofu, if using) to the slow cooker, stir well. re-cover and cook on high-heat setting an 30 additional minutes. serve with hot cooked rice. note: i don't eat much meat and prefer more vegetables, so i often add extra firm cubed tofu at the last 30 minute mark. tasty! also good with small new potatoes added at the beginning, which is another good way to stretch the recipe. :).

Target recipe: heat the oil in a large pot om medium high heat and add the chicken thigh meat. let them brown on all sides. take the chicken out and add the mushrooms to the oil and rendered fat of the chicken. cook for five minutes, stirring occasionally. add the other vegetables and seasonings and cook for another five minutes, continue to stir occasionally. the stove should be on medium heat to prevent any burns. add the chicken back into the pot and add the chicken broth. put on medium high heat again, and let it come to a gentle boil. lower the heat to low, cover the pot and let it simmer for 1 1/2 hours. serve warm with a side dish of egg noodles.
