Spray the inside of slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.

Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper, and place in a single layer in the bottom of the prepared slow cooker. Add potatoes, onion, carrot and celery. Stir in chicken stock mixture and bay leaves. Cover with lid and continue cooking for 3-4 hours on high heat, or 6-8 hours on low heat.

In the last 30 minutes of cooking: remove the chicken thighs from the slow cooker and shred before returning to the crock pot. Add corn and peas to the crock pot, stirring once. Cover and cook for an additional 30 minutes. Also, this is the time to bake your biscuits as stated on the packaging (or use homemade if you prefer).
