Description

Delight in the comforting flavors of tender chicken slow-cooked in a tangy mustard sauce, perfect for family dinners or gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs boneless chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme (or 1/3 tsp dried)
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Chicken: Pat dry the boneless chicken thighs with paper towels.
  2. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, sear each side of the chicken thighs until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Create the Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together dry white wine, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme until well combined.
  4. Assemble in Slow Cooker: Transfer the seared chicken thighs to your slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce over them to ensure they are well coated.
  5. Cook Low and Slow: Cover and cook on low heat for about 6-8 hours or until the chicken is tender and easily pulls apart with forks.
  6. Serve It Up: Once cooked, garnish with fresh parsley before serving alongside your choice of mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
