The recent snow and ice storms have meant lots of hours for me in my retail life and paid snow days for my husband.
I am not a big eater but my husband and daughter are ravenous carnivores. So i made these chicken thighs in the crockpot based on this:
I threw about 1/2 to 3/4 cup homemade chicken stock (a frozen disk) in the bottom of my crockpot adding garlic powder and parsley (about 2 tablespoons each). Crockpot to high.
I put two frozen chicken thighs (with bones and skin) on a plate and sprinkled with:
- about one teaspoon paprika
- about one teaspoon curry
- about 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
I then poured a big old can of Taylor yams in the crockpot, heavy syrup and all.
Then I placed the chicken on top, seasoning side up. Final additions:
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- a few splashes low sodium soy sauce
Cook about six hours. I'm off to work 5 hours in-- house smells delicious.
Will report later.
The family said this was a keeper and my plate had just enough flavor to prevent boredom but not so much it covered up the natural tastes. Good stuff.
