Turkey or Chicken Casserole with Vegetables

 I bought a whole chicken (5.8 lbs.),  and put it in my slow cooker.  No water.  No spices.  Cooked it on low for about 7 hrs.  I then deboned it and removed the skin.  [the trick here is to do it almost as soon as you take it out of the slowcooker.  It's hot but much easier then if you let it cool.]. I cut up the chicken in cubes, per the recipe.  I also doubled this recipe.  I was able to get 4 meals out of it, and with the leftover chicken, I filled a "souper cube" to freeze and I'll use that to make this recipe again.



Turkey or Chicken Casserole with Vegetables

2 cups cooked meat
2 tablespoons  olive oil
1/2 cup diced celery
1/3 cup onion sliced thinly
1/3 cup green pepper sliced thinly
3 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
3 tablespoons white wine

Cut meat into cubes. 
Heat oil, sauté vegetables until tender.
Sprinkle flour over veg's, slowly cook for 5 minutes 
Stir in broth a small amount at a time to make a roux.
Remove from heat (important)...
Stir in the yolks and meat.  Stir in the wine.
Season to taste.
