Here are the ingredients you need:

1. 4 Smoked Bacons, chopped
2. 8 Chicken Drumsticks
3. Two tablespoons of plain flour
4. A tablespoon of olive oil
5. A brown onion, thinly sliced
6. Two garlic cloves, crushed
7. 300 grams of mushrooms, thickly sliced
8. 700 grams of butternut pumpkin, peeled, seeded, and cut into 2cm pieces
9. A tablespoon of ground paprika
10. Half a cup of chicken stock
11. One-third a cup of cream
12. Chopped flat-leaf parsley, to serve
13. Any type of bread you wish, toasted, to serve
14. Lemon wedges, to serve


In a large non-stick frying pan, cook the bacon over medium heat for five minutes, stirring constantly. Be sure to keep an eye on it and remove it from the heat once it starts turning golden. Place the bacon into your slow cooker.

In a large bowl, place the chicken drumsticks and flour, then toss and coat evenly. Heat the olive oil in the pan, then add the coated chicken and cook in two separate batches for five minutes per side. Let them cook until they've been browned on all sides.

After that, add the onion, garlic, mushrooms, pumpkin, paprika, and stock to the slow cooker. Place a lid on the slow cooker, then cook on high for four hours or on low for six hours. When the time's up, quickly pour the cream in. This will help thicken the broth and add a fantastic creaminess.

Serve your slow-cooked goodness with a sprinkle of parsley, a side of toasted bread, and a lemon wedge for squeezing over.

This is a wonderfully quick and easy recipe that you can make with minimal fuss. The taste and quality you get from slow-cooked meals can't be beaten. So next time you need a crowd-pleasing dish that takes almost no effort, why not try this Creamy Chicken, Pumpkin, and Mushroom Recipe? It's sure to be a new favourite.
