Equipment
- 6-quart Slow Cooker
- Baking sheet
Ingredients
- 16 ounces baby carrots
- 8 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
- 16 ounces green beans trimmed
- 16 ounces baby red potatoes halved
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
For the Sauce:
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup reduced sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup ketchup
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Combine the soy sauce, honey, ketchup, minced garlic, dried basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a large bowl to prepare the sauce.
- Arrange the chicken thighs, halved baby red potatoes, and baby carrots in the slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the ingredients.
- Cover and cook on low heat for 7–8 hours, or on high heat for 3–4 hours. Baste the chicken with the sauce every hour for enhanced flavor.
- Add the green beans to the slow cooker during the final 30 minutes of cooking.
- (Optional) Preheat your oven to broil. Place the cooked chicken thighs on a baking sheet, skin-side up, and broil for 3–4 minutes, or until the skin becomes crispy.
- Serve immediately, pairing the chicken with the potatoes, carrots, and green beans. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish, if desired.
