-
Heat oil in a 10-inch (25-centimeter) frying pan over medium–high heat. Add chicken and cook about five minutes, turning once, until no longer pink and beginning to brown.
-
Meanwhile, place carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and water chestnuts in a four to six quart/liter slow cooker. Turn on high. Add chicken strips. Add water with soup mix, soy sauce, and ginger. Cover and cook for two-and-a-half hours on high, or five hours on low.
-
Toward the end of cooking time, mix cornstarch and water together. Stir into chicken mixture. Add mushrooms and snap peas. Cook an additional 10–15 minutes.
-
At the very end, add salt and pepper to taste. Serve over spaghetti or pasta of your choice. Garnish with scallions and/or nuts of choice.
Tip:
You can add a few pieces of chicken livers, cut up, to the slow cooker, during last the half hour for an elegant appetizer or main dish.
