Description
Slow-cooked chicken thighs in a rich gravy, perfect for weeknight dinners with minimal fuss.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs (bone-in recommended)
- 1 cup chicken broth (low-sodium)
- 1 packet gravy mix (about 1 oz)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooked white rice for serving
Instructions
- Arrange the chicken thighs in a single layer in the bottom of the crockpot. Pat them dry first.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, gravy mix, chopped onion, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth.
- Pour the gravy mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring the onions are distributed.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6–7 hours or on high for 3–4 hours until the thighs are very tender.
- Remove the chicken and stir the gravy; thicken if necessary with a cornstarch slurry and cook on high for 10–15 minutes.
- Serve the thighs and gravy over hot cooked white rice.
Notes
Optional: Sear the chicken before slow cooking for added flavor; serve with steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
