In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease, and since then it has become an invaluable resource to people worldwide who seek information about celiac disease and the gluten-free diet. In 1998 I created The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore! which was also another Internet first—it was the first gluten-free food site to offer a shopping cart-style interface, and the ability for people to order gluten-free products manufactured by many different companies at a single Web site.
I am also co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of Journal of Gluten Sensitivity.
I dont define exact amounts of the ingredient because it will vary with the size of your crock pot how much you want to prepare. I made this in two crock pots last evening for a crowd. Everyone liked it and went for seconds. It makes a nice presentation with the colorful spices on the chicken. The gravy that forms is nice and light. If youre one who cant tolerate tapioca, then you will need to mix corn starch or another thickener with the broth before pouring it over the potatoes.
Ingredients:
Carrots
Potatoes
2 tablespoons tapioca pearls (or other thickener of you choice)
½ to 1 cup chicken broth
Chicken pieces w/ skins on (skinless pieces would dry out with this cooking
method)
Turmeric
Paprika
Salt and pepper
Directions:
Peel a few carrots and cut into 1 inch chunks. Place in the bottom of
crock pot. Peel potatoes, cut in quarters and place on top of carrots
and salt and pepper lightly. Sprinkle on tapioca pearls. Pour on chicken
broth. Liberally sprinkle chicken with spices and salt. Place on top
of potatoes. Cook on low for 8 to 9 hours. To serve, remove chicken and
place on serving platter. Put potatoes and carrots in separate dish.
