Can I Use Chicken Thighs?

Yes! You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs. I recommend using 6. Cook them for 1 hour longer than chicken breasts.

Recipe Tips

  • I don’t recommend cooking chicken breasts on HIGH in a slow cooker. They are too likely to get overcooked and chewy and dry in texture.
  • Make it a little or a lot spicy. Add just a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Add half a teaspoon to make it spicy.

Storage

Will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days and can be frozen for up to 2 months.
