Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs
  1. Prep the chicken: Remove the chicken out of the fridge 20-30 minutes before cooking. Pat dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Let it sit at room temperature.

  2. Gather the ingredients: Meanwhile, gather the other ingredients. In a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottom pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken, skin side down, until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to the crockpot, skin side up.

  3. Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, soy sauce, honey, garlic, onion powder, dried green onion or chives, and ground ginger. Then pour the sauce mixture over the chicken.

  4. Cook the chicken: Lock the lid and cook on HIGH for 3 hours or LOW for 5 hours, or until the chicken thighs are tender and the sauce has thickened.

  5. Serve: Remove chicken from the slow cooker and place on a serving plate. Spoon the sauce over, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seed and chopped fresh green onions. Serve over rice or noodles, or with steamed veggies!
