Honey Mustard Glazed Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs delightfully transform dinner with a sweet and tangy glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and paprika until well combined.
- Place the chicken thighs in the slow cooker and pour the honey mustard mixture over them, ensuring they are well coated.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
- Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken thighs from the slow cooker and place them on a serving platter.
- Optional: If you prefer crispy skin, place the chicken thighs under the broiler for 3-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
- Drizzle some of the remaining sauce from the slow cooker over the chicken and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the honey mustard mixture.
- Serve the chicken over rice or quinoa to soak up the delicious sauce, or pair it with steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
