Ingredients
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 3 stalks celery chopped
- 2 cups matchstick carrots
- 1 lb chicken breast
- 1 cup wild rice
- 1 tsp dried thyme

For the Roux
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 cup canned coconut milk full fat

Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables and add them to the slow cooker. Place in the chicken breasts, add the wild rice, and sprinkle in the thyme, rosemary, and salt. Pour in the broth.
- Cook on high for 4 hours, then remove the chicken and shred.
- In a sauce pan over low to medium heat, combine olive oil, coconut milk, and tapioca flour. Heat for five minutes, stirring occasionally, and a doughy roux will form.
