Categories     Chicken

Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 good sized chicken drumsticks
1 c favorite honey bbq sauce
1 c whole cranberry sauce
1 pkg dry onion soup mix
1-1/2 tsp dried italian herb mix
salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Spray the liner of a 4-5 quart slow cooker w/ olive oil cooking spray. You can either cook the chicken w/ the skin on or off, I cook them w/ the skin and take the skin off when done cooking. It keeps the chicken very moist.
  • 2. Pat chicken dry w/ paper towels and sprinkle w/ salt, pepper & Italian herb mix. Place chicken in slow cooker.
  • 3. In medium sized bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients. Pour sauce over chicken. Set the cooker on low for 6 hrs. You can cook at high for 4 hrs but I find the meat falls right off the bone if cooked on low. Do NOT open and stir, just let it cook. You can serve this over rice, noodles, mashed potatoes or whatever you like. Just spoon some of the sauce over the chicken & watch people lick their fingers w/ smiles on their faces!

Tips:

  • For a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and stir into the chicken mixture before cooking.
  • If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this recipe in a Dutch oven over low heat for 6-8 hours.
  • Add vegetables such as carrots, celery, and onions to the crock pot for a more hearty meal.
  • Serve the chicken with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
  • Top the chicken with shredded cheese, sour cream, or salsa before serving.

Conclusion:

Tangy crock pot chicken is an easy and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by the whole family. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering. Give this recipe a try and see for yourself how easy it is to make a delicious and satisfying meal in your crock pot.
