For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of white wine to the lemon-garlic mixture. To thicken the sauce, remove the chicken after cooking and whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker and cook on High for 15 minutes, or until thickened. This recipe works equally well with bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for a richer flavor. Fresh herbs are best, but dried parsley can be substituted if needed. Use half the amount of dried parsley.

Oct 2, 2022The sauce was a little too tart for my taste, so I added a teaspoon of honey to balance it out. Perfect!
