Chicken Thigh Recipes Slow Cooker Crock Pot

Chicken Thighs cooked in the crock pot make a mouthwatering recipe that's perfect for a busy weeknight or lazy weekends! Juicy chicken coated in a thick rich sauce flavored with garlic, honey, and soy sauce is a slow cooker hit.

Are you ready for one of the easiest and most delicious chicken recipes you'll ever make in the slow cooker? Well, here it is!

Crock Pot Chicken Thighs is a recipe creation that's been on repeat in my kitchen for the past several weeks. It's uncomplicated yet has a combination of flavors that go perfectly together. As the chicken cooks low and slow, the simple 8-ingredient sauce infuses the perfect amount of sweet and savory flavors making this a recipe you will love.

Ingredients For This Recipe:

• Bone-in, skin on chicken thighs
• Ketchup
• Soy Sauce
• Honey
• Onion Powder
• Dried Mustard
• Dried Thyme
• Dried Parsley
• Salt and Pepper

Do You Need To Sear The Chicken First?

For this recipe, it's really best to get a good sear on the chicken. It helps impart extra flavor. I use a cast iron skillet (get it screaming hot) to brown the chicken. Work in 2 batches so that the chicken does not touch while you're searing the skin.

Substitutions For This Recipe

• If you can't find bone-in, skin-on thighs at the store, you can use boneless, skinless thighs. I recommend still searing to impart extra flavor before adding the chicken to the crock pot.
• Change up the flavors if you want. Add-in some extra spice with red pepper flakes or chopped jalapeñpos. Mix in grated fresh ginger and sprinkle on sesame seeds for an Asian flair.
• Replace the ketchup with your favorite BBQ sauce and add in smoked paprika.

How To Store Leftovers

The cooked chicken and any leftover sauce store well in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Store in a resealable container then reheat before serving.

These chicken thighs coated with all that yummy rich sauce go really well with any side dish that can soak up all the juicy goodness in the bottom of the slow cooker. Add in a fresh veggie or salad and dinner is served!
