A creamy garlic herb slow cooker chicken dish that is easy, healthy, and bursting with flavor. Tender chicken thighs in a tangy Greek yogurt and herb sauce, served with colorful veggies.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 2 medium carrots peeled and cut into 1-inch rounds
- 1 medium yellow onion sliced into half-moons
- 8 ounces baby potatoes halved
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice juiced just before adding
Instructions
- Place chopped carrots, onion, and potatoes in the bottom of a 6-quart Crockpot.
- Whisk together chicken broth, Greek yogurt, garlic, thyme, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Pat chicken thighs dry and place on top of the veggies in the Crockpot.
- Pour yogurt-broth mixture over the chicken and vegetables without stirring. Cook on Low for 4–5 hours or High for 2–3 hours.
- Stir in fresh lemon juice, adjust seasoning, and thicken the sauce if desired. Serve hot straight from the Crockpot.
Notes
Chicken thighs stay extra juicy. For a creamier gravy, cook uncovered at the end. Substitute baby potatoes for sweet potatoes for a sweeter taste.
