    1/8 ts Ground black pepper
      1 c  Frozen peas
      2 tb Red currant jelly

  In a small skillet cook bacon over medium heat until
  crisp. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels. Crumble

  in the center of a double-thick, 6-inch square of
  100-percent-cotton cheesecloth. Bring up corners; tie
  closed with clean cotton string.

  In a 3 1/2 to 5 quart slow cooker combine carrots, celery,
  shallots, and spice bag. Add chicken. Sprinkle with
  crumbled bacon. In a small bowl combine broth, wine,
  tapioca, dried thyme and rosemary (if using), salt, and
  pepper. Pour over mixture in cooker.

  Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 6 to 7 hours or on
  high-heat setting for 3 to 3 1/2 hours or until chicken is
  tender. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken and
  carrots to a serving platter; cover and keep warm.

  If using low-heat setting, turn to high-heat setting. Stir
  in peas and, if using, fresh thyme and rosemary. Cover and
  cook for 5 minutes more. Remove and discard spice bag.
  Skim fat from broth mixture. Stir in currant jelly. Pour
  broth mixture over chicken and carrots. Serve with hot
  cooked rice.
