Ingredients
- 5 in chicken thighs , bone-in and skin-on
- kosher salt
- black pepper
- 6 red potatoes , quartered
- 5 cloves garlic , chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme , chopped
- 1/2 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In your slow cooker aluminum insert (do not heat a ceramic insert, use a skillet instead).
- Heat the skillet/insert on medium high heat.
- Season the chicken to taste with Kosher salt and black pepper (I used 1/2 teaspoon of Kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper).
- Add the chicken thighs skin side down and brown for 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
- Add in the potatoes and stir amongst the chicken fat in the pan.
- Add in the chopped garlic and thyme and season as desired with salt and pepper (again I used 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper).
- Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
- Add half the Parmesan cheese and cook on high for 15 minutes.
- Serve and top with remaining Parmesan cheese.
- If your slow cooker runs hot or you use inserts and the chicken steams instead of crisps, finish it in the oven at 400 degrees for 5-7 minutes to crisp up the potatoes and the chicken.
