Ingredients

½ cup all-purpose flour
2 ½ teaspoons paprika, divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package sliced portobello mushrooms
1 medium onion, chopped
5 medium potatoes, quartered
5 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 stalks celery, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 cloves garlic, whole
1 (16 ounce) can lager beer
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
4 ounces tomato paste
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons cold water

Directions

Mix flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika, salt, and pepper together in a medium bowl. Coat chicken with the flour mixture, reserving 1 tablespoon for cooking.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken in the hot oil, turning frequently, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle reserved 1 tablespoon flour mixture over chicken; add mushrooms and onion. Turn heat to medium and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Drain excess oil if needed.
Transfer chicken mixture to the bottom of a slow cooker. Add potatoes, carrots, celery, garlic, beer, and Worcestershire.
Mix chicken broth and tomato paste together in a small bowl and pour into the slow cooker. Sprinkle poultry seasoning and remaining paprika over top.
Cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and vegetables are softened and flavors have blended, on Low, 7 to 8 hours, or High, about 4 hours. To thicken, combine cornstarch and cold water, mix thoroughly, and stir into the stew 1 hour before serving. Add more salt and pepper as needed.
