Ingredients:


1 whole chicken -- (2 1/2 to 3lb) cleaned and patted dry

1 Cup water

1 small onion -- minced fine

2 tablespoons red pepper flakes

10 pieces lemon grass stalk (available at oriental -- (6 inch)

1/2 Cup heavy cream

1 pound fresh mushrooms of choice -- sliced thin
 

Preparation / Directions:


Stuff half the lemongrass shoots into the chicken cavity. Put the chicken in the crockpot. Dump the rest in, and cook on low for 4-6 hrs until the chicken is fork tender. Note: If you like spicy food, use more than 2 T red pepper flakes -- to taste, really. I like hot food, so I've added up to 5 T. Season also with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve the chicken with rice and veggies. Save the stock for soup. If you prefer a creamier soup, you can add sour cream to get the desired consistency, or if you like more authenticity, try coconut mil
