Juicy Slow Chicken (Printable Recipe)
Crispy outside, tender chicken thighs made with nothing but salt, pepper, and slow heat.
# Ingredients You'll Need:
→ Poultry
01 -
6–8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
→ Seasonings
02 -
Kosher salt, to taste
03 -
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Thoroughly season both sides of the chicken thighs with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, ensuring even distribution for deep flavor.
02 -
Position the seasoned chicken thighs skin side up in a single, even layer at the base of the slow cooker. Avoid overlapping pieces to promote even crisping.
03 -
Leave the slow cooker dry—do not pour in broth, water, or oil. The chicken will render enough juices during cooking.
04 -
Cover and set the slow cooker to its low setting. Let the thighs cook undisturbed for 7 hours until the skin is golden and crisp and the meat turns fork-tender.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Arrange chicken in one layer to allow air circulation and promote maximum crispness of the skin.
