EASY Ethiopian Doro Wat Recipe made in the Slow Cooker! This Doro Wot stewed chicken with wine and butter can be shredded to make it easier to serve with Injera Bread.
Set a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, garlic, and ginger. Pan-fry for 3-5 minutes to soften. (In classic "wat" recipes, the onions are cooked without fat, so they break down and thicken the stew base. The butter is added later.)
Set out a large 6-8 quart slow cooker. Scoop the onion mixture into the crock. Place all the remaining ingredients, excluding the lime juice, in a slow cooker and cover. Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours.
Once the chicken is fork-tender, pull the pieces out of the slow cooker with tongs and place on a cutting board. Use forks to shred the chicken to bite-sized pieces. Place back into the wine sauce. Then stir in the lime juice and keep warm until ready to serve.
