Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs PT375M https://img1.recipesrun.com/201907/2019/0731/af/a/803299/300x200x90.jpg Searing the chicken thighs may seem like an annoying step, but trust us, it's worth it. Not only does it get the chicken skin nice and crispy (because it does lose some crispiness in the slow cooker), but it also caramelizes the fat, adding a ton more flavor. If you don't want to do it, that's totally fine. You can just throw the chicken in the slow cooker. The sauce, you'll be happy to know, doesn't need any precooking. It just gets poured right in and forgotten about until dinner time. 3 servings Ingredients: Cooked rice, for serving Juice of 1 lime 2 tablespoons Sriracha 2 teaspoons Freshly minced ginger 3 cloves Garlic, minced 1/4 c. Honey 1/2 c. Ketchup 1/2 c. Low-sodium soy sauce Freshly ground black pepper Kosher salt 6 Bone-in or boneless chicken thighs 1 tablespoon Extra-virgin olive oil
