How to Make Garlic Chicken Thighs for Two in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
The flavors of this Crock Pot Garlic Chicken Thighs for Two is incredible. There are quite a few ingredients in this recipe, but if you have a stocked spice rack, I am guessing you will have most of these in your home already. All of these common ingredients come together to give you a flavor packed chicken dish that is a huge hit in my home. (Psst…if you need more servings, you can find the original recipe here.)
If you look at the original recipe, you may notice that I changed it from bone-in chicken thighs to boneless. This was just because I already had some boneless chicken thighs. You can still use bone-in thighs, if you prefer, or even use chicken breasts cut into thigh size pieces. As always, we highly recommend watching any recipe closely the first time you make it so you can adjust the cooking time as needed for your specific slow cooker unit and any alterations you have made to the original recipe.
