• Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop carrot and celery. • In a large bowl, combine garlic & herb herb seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken drumsticks and toss to combine. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Add chicken drumsticks and cook, until browned on all sides, 3-4 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Add garlic and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Transfer chicken drumsticks, crushed & sieved tomatoes, chicken-style stock powder, the brown sugar, the water, and a pinch of salt to slow cooker and set cooking temperature to high. • Place lid on slow cooker and cook until chicken is tender, 4-5 hours.
• When the stew has 20 minutes remaining, boil the kettle. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add half the grated Parmesan cheese, the milk and the butter (for the mash) to the potato, then season with salt. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
• When the stew is ready, stir through baby leaves and the butter (for the sauce) until leaves are wilted. • Season to taste.
TIP: Add a splash of water if the sauce mixture looks too thick.
• Divide mash between bowls. • Top with slow-cooked Italian chicken stew to serve. Enjoy!
