Crock Pot Lemony Chicken Soup

Was home sick and put this together. my husband that normally does not want to participate in rating a recipe said that this was 5 star resturant quality. guess i couldn't ask for anything more. enjoy!!

Steps

Layer in crock pot in this order , onion , carrot , mushrooms , bay leaf and chicken.
Put sliced lemon on top and inside of chicken.
Mix together the stock , apricot / pineapple preserves , cumin , ginger , coriander , garlic and salt and pepper.
Pour over chicken.
Set crock on high and cook for 4 hours , i basted every so often.
Being sure that none of the preserves stayed on top of the chicken to get dried out.
After 4 hours , remove chicken allow to cool , debone and deskin , chopping into chunks.
While chicken is cooling mix cornstarch and water add to crock , this will not thicken alot but just enough to give it body.
