Slow Cooker Bourbon Chicken

 

This is New Orleans-style chicken made with shredded dark meat in a lightly sweet sauce. Delicious served over brown rice. Kids love it, too.

Ingredients

    • 6 frozen chicken thighs
    • 1 clove garlic, chopped (or 1 tbsp. granulated garlic)
    • 1/4 tsp. ground ginger
    • 1/4 c. apple juice
    • 1/4 c. packed light brown sugar
    • 2 tbsp. ketchup
    • 1 tbsp. cider vinegar
    • 1/2 c. water
    1/8 c. soy sauce

Tips

Green onion garnish and a side salad make it a meal.

 

Directions

Place frozen chicken thighs on bottom of crock pot. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over chicken. Cook 8 hours on low, then shred chicken in the slow cooker to a “pulled pork” consistency. Ladle over a bowl of brown rice or place atop a whole-grain bun. (Not included in Nutrition Facts).
