Crispy Chicken Thighs in the Slow Cooker? Yes, It’s Possible!

Crispy Chicken Thighs in the Slow Cooker? Yes, It’s Possible!

Here's everything you need for these incredibly juicy slow-cooker chicken thighs. This recipe makes four to six servings.

Ingredients to Gather

1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
6 to 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 2 1/2 pounds total)

Directions to Follow

Mix up the seasoning: Place the salt, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl and whisk together with a fork.
Season the chicken: Coat the chicken thighs evenly on all sides with the seasoning mixture.
Place the chicken in the slow cooker: Place the chicken skin-side up in a single layer in a 6-quart or larger slow cooker. It is important that the chicken thighs are skin-side up, with some space between them. Overcrowding will result in soft, rather than crispy, chicken skin.
Slow cook: Cover the slow cooker, but leave the lid slightly askew — this allows venting. Cook on the LOW setting until tender and the internal temperature of the chicken registers 165°F, 6 to 7 hours.
Serve: Serve warm or pull the meat off the bones for tacos, sandwiches, etc.

We just love this slow-cooker chicken thigh recipe. The meat turns out so tender and delectable that it practically falls off your fork, plus it's versatile enough to use in nearly any kind of dish. Delicious!
