Chicken Thighs
  • 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

  1. Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, ketchup, honey, and minced garlic until well combined.
  3. Place the seasoned chicken thighs in the slow cooker in a single layer.
  4. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken thighs, making sure they are coated evenly.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low for 4 hours or on High for 2–3 hours until the chicken is tender and fully cooked through.
