Notes

For extra flavor, you can add other vegetables such as carrots or onions to the slow cooker. If you prefer a thicker sauce, after cooking, you can remove some of the broth and thicken it with cornstarch before mixing it back in. Always taste and adjust the seasoning before serving to ensure the dish has the right flavor.
