Ingredients
-
2 1/2 pounds raw skinless, boneless chicken thighs
-
1/3 cup honey
-
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
-
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)

-
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (if you want)
Spring Blossom Chicken Slow Cooker Making Steps
-
Put the chicken thighs in a single flat layer at the bottom of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Try not to pile them up too much so they cook evenly.
-
In a small bowl, mix the honey, mustard, chicken broth, lemon juice, and herbs until it’s smooth. Taste it and add salt and pepper if you like.
-
Pour the mix all over the chicken. Use a spoon to push some sauce under the pieces so everything gets coated.
-
Put the lid on and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or HIGH for 2.5-3 hours. The chicken is done when it’s super soft and hits 165°F inside (use a thermometer).
-
Taste the sauce and add more salt, pepper, or lemon if needed. If it’s too runny, take off the lid and cook on HIGH for 10-15 minutes to thicken it up.
-
Serve hot with lots of sauce on top. Add chopped parsley or chives if you have some (totally optional).
