Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 onion diced
  • 3 carrots diced
  • 5 potatoes diced
  • 3 celery stalks diced
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 3 stems fresh sage
  • 3 stems fresh rosemary
  • 1 small bunch fresh oregano
  • 8 bone-in chicken thighs
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
  • Pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Place the butter, garlic, onions, carrots, potatoes, celery, and herbs in the insert of your slow cooker. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Pat the chicken dry and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Place on top of veggies in the slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together sauce ingredients and pour over the chicken.
  • Place on high for 3 hours, or on low for 7 hours.
  • Once done, preheat your broiler on high. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet and broil on high for 1-3 minutes to crisp up the chicken skin.
