Crisp & Juicy Slow Cooker Chicken
Crisp & Juicy Slow Cooker Chicken uses bone-in, skin-on thighs cooked low and slow without added liquids. This method renders the fat and gently cooks the chicken, producing juicy meat while keeping the skin intact. The seasoning is simple with kosher salt and freshly crushed black pepper, allowing the natural chicken flavor to shine through with a subtly crisp skin from top-down slow cooking.
