Provided by Kimberly Ann

Time 3h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (1.5 pound) package small yellow-fleshed potatoes
3 pounds skin-on, boneless chicken thighs
3 small apples, peeled and diced
½ medium sweet onion, diced
1 cup chicken broth
½ cup honey
⅓ cup applesauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Chop any large potatoes in half.
  • Place potatoes in the bottom of a slow cooker. Add chicken thighs on top of potatoes, and spread apples and onion over top.
  • Mix chicken broth, honey, applesauce, garlic, salt, cinnamon, cumin, and pepper together in a bowl; pour over chicken mixture.
  • Cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 4 to 6 hours on Low, or about 3 hours on High. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Remove chicken thighs from the slow cooker and place, skin-side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Broil in the preheated oven until skin is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with potatoes, apples, onions, and sauce.
