Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs are so easy to make! Bone in or boneless chicken thighs taste delicious, on a bed of rice!
I love how easy this Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs recipe is! The taste is so yummy! We love this simple recipe so much we had to make a video!
If I am using boneless chicken thighs with skin I often broil them for a few minutes to crisp the skin up while the sauce is thickening in the slow cooker!
If I am using boneless chicken thighs without skin I don't do anything but serve them, usually with rice!
Never, ever a disappointment to anyone. Young or old.
These thighs are always a hit!
I even love the leftovers! I have shredded the left over chicken in some of the sauce and served it the next day in a wrap or on a salad. You are only limited by your imagination!

My family loves this chicken. We would try the wraps but we never have any leftovers. Is great over rice and is so easy to make.

The wraps are delicious but it's true there are rarely any leftovers. I have been known to make a double batch just so we have enough to make the wraps! Sounds funny but it's true. Thank you for taking the time to let me know you liked this recipe. You made my day! All the best. Karin
