Ingredients
1 lb Bacon, chopped 1 Onions, chopped 2 cloves Garlic 2 Chicken Breast, no skin, no bone (14 ounces) Salt, 0.5 tsp (or to taste) Pepper, black, 1 tsp (or to taste) 2 Leeks, chopped 4 Potatoes or 2lbs worth, chopped 4 cups Vegetable Broth
Directions
Note: If you start with your meats partially frozen, it makes chopping much easier.

Step 1: Turn on crock pot to high lid on.
Step 2: Chop the bacon into small pieces and place into crock pot, replace lid. Chop onion, add to pot, replace lid. Chop garlic (or use pre-chopped) and add. Chop chicken, about 1/2 inch or bigger size pieces, and add. Add Salt & pepper to taste, mix, replace lid.

Step 3: Make sure leeks are cleaned thoroughly, trim, chop, add to pot, replace lid. Repeat with potatoes. Note; I like to leave the skin on the potatoes, some people prefer to remove the skin.

Step 4: Pour in the vegetable broth. Note: Chicken broth can also be used.

Cooks fully on high in 4 to 5 hours, or it can be cooked on low for 7 to 9 hours.
