This Slow Cooker Chicken-Andouille Stew was inspired by gluten-free chicken Andouille sausage I found at Costco and this was so tasty!

It’s December, and you may be feeling the need for a little comfort food! If so, I can highly recommend this Slow Cooker Chicken-Andouille Stew that I shared over on Kalyn’s Kitchen. This stew is slightly spicy and creamy and tastes wonderful served over rice and noodles.
There are a few steps to get this into the slow cooker, but then it cooks 4-6 hours on low while you’re doing other things. And when you take your first bite, I promise you won’t mind that it was a little bit of work.

December 16, 2014 at 1:54 pmI love the chicken andouille sausage from Costco and use it in quite a few dishes. Unfortunately I went to stock up the other day and they said they don't carry it in the winter because its a 'seasonal' item. I tried to find it (or something similar) in a couple local grocery's with no luck. Will have to make a trip to Trader Joe's to see if they have another or wait until spring when Costco gets it back in stock.

It was *slightly* too creamy for me…I might cut back on the cream cheese amount next time or add more broth. My husband loved the sauce how it was though!
Thanks for all your great recipes!
