1.In a medium pan, sauté onions and garlic until onions are translucent. Transfer to crock pot. 2.In the same pan, add oil and brown the chicken just until it has a nice sear. Place chicken in crock pot. 3.Add carrots, ginger, broth, butternut squash, potatoes, and spices. 4.Slow cook ( I cook on slow heat for 6 hours.) 5.Optional: I made my roasted butternut squash and beet while this stew was cooking.
