Slow-cooker Peach Chicken

This couldn't really be easier and it turned out really ymmuy!! Give it a try!

2 (lb.) boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4-5 breasts)
2 (15 oz.) cans peach halves or slices, only drain juices from one can
2 envelopes dry onion soup mix (check the label!)

I cut my chicken breasts into approximately 1-1/2" strips, but you can leave them whole breasts if you want...it doesn't make any difference.
Place the chicken in a slow-cooker. Add peaches and sprinkle with soup mix. Cover and cook on high for 5-7 hours (over cooking is fine). Right before serving, mix together the cornstarch and cold water. Gradually add to broth in slow-cooker and stir until thickened. Serve over rice!

Note:
-After cooking for about 6 hours, there were still some small chunks of peaches when we ate the chicken (I used peach slices). We didn't have a problem with this, but if you are serving it to people who don't like warm fruit or maybe have a problem with peaches, then you may want to slightly puree the peaches before you put in them in the slow-cooker.
