Our 11 Favorite Chicken Recipes for the Slow Cooker

There are lots of ways to cook a chicken. You can deep fry it, roast it whole, or grind it up and call it a nugget. But to get the meat to its most fork-tender, shreddable, and intensely flavorful, a low and slow method is a must. By letting it simmer gently in its own juices for an extended period of time, you get chicken that tastes more like, well, chicken, plus whatever other herbs, veggies, or spices you’ve thrown in.

For meat of that caliber, you can turn to your slow cooker, which makes the whole process as easy as can be. Here are ten of our best recipes that use the crock to create the chicken of your dreams.

1. Slow Cooker Asian-Style Chicken Thighs

Chowhound

Some chicken recipes let all the seasonings sit on the surface. Not this one: every single piece is infused with a rich sauce that balances savory soy, sweet brown sugar, and the deep aromatics of cinnamon and star anise. Get our Slow Cooker Asian-Style Chicken Thighs recipe.

2. Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs with Olives and Fennel

Oranges and olives is a Mediterranean ingredient combo that works surprisingly well—the sourness of the orange laces the bitterness of the olives with an electric acidity. With some fennel added in for an extra anise-scented oomph, this chicken takes on some amazingly sophisticated and powerful flavors. Get our Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs with Olives and Fennel recipe.

3. Slow Cooker Chicken Soup

Chowhound

A chicken in a pot can be the key to a meal that practically makes itself. Our slow cooker soup uses the whole bird to not only provide the meat, but also create a supremely comforting and savory broth. Get our Slow Cooker Chicken Soup recipe.

4. Slow Cooker Chicken Adobo

Chowhound

Adobo is all about the slow simmer, leaving plenty of time to infuse all of Its ingredients with a vinegary tang. It’s a method that works especially well with bone-in meat, which lends extra flavor and body throughout. Get our Slow Cooker Chicken Adobo recipe.

5. Slow Cooker Chicken Mole

Chowhound

Traditional mole can be dauntingly complex to make, but a slow cooker and a blender can reduce it down to just a few easy steps. All the ingredients are thrown into the crock at the same time, so you get a sauce that’s full of chicken-y flavor and meat that sings of spices right down to the bone. Get our Slow Cooker Chicken Mole recipe.

6. Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos

Chowhound

Shredded chicken feels right at home nestled into a taco. We like to cook it in a broth of chile peppers, onion, and orange, so that each bite is loaded with juices and spice. Get our Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos recipe.

7. Slow Cooker Chicken Chile Verde

Chowhound

The slow cooker doesn’t diminish any of the bright, tangy flavors associated with chile verde. Instead, it lets them shine, allowing the tomatillos and jalapeños to mingle and meld with the chunks of chicken. Get our Slow Cooker Chicken Chile Verde recipe.

8. Slow Cooker Burmese Chicken and Noodles

Chowhound

Coconut milk and a mix of spices give this dish an especially rich and luxuriant feel, coating each piece of chicken and each noodle strand in a silky, creamy sauce. Get our Slow Cooker Burmese Chicken and Noodles recipe.

9. Thai Green Curry Chicken Thighs

Chowhound

This recipe can be made on the stovetop, but when done in the slow cooker, its spices get extra time to open up and express their fullest flavors. Get our Thai Green Curry Chicken Thighs recipe.

10. Slow Cooker Hot Wings

Chowhound

Slow cooker wings are in a whole different class from your standard deep-fried version. Instead of going for the crunch, they aspire to be meltingly tender and saucy, with meat that practically wilts off the bone. Get our Slow Cooker Hot Wings recipe.

11. Slow Cooker Italian-Style Chicken

Chowhound

Think of this as a lower-stress version of Chicken Cacciatore. Skin-on, bone in chicken thighs receive a flavor-boosting browning. They’re joined in the crockpot with the classic trio of aromatic vegetables: onion, celery, and garlic, with garlic, sautéed to soften. Get our Slow Cooker Italian-Style Chicken recipe.

9 Easy Marinades for Slow Cooker Chicken

Many of our weeknight repertoire recipes are for chicken. And as such, our relationship with chicken can get stale pretty quickly. And yet, it’s one of the easiest, quickest, healthiest options on the block, so we inevitably return to it time and again. The holy trinity of salt, pepper, olive oil works wonders on meat and vegetables, but sometimes you gotta change it up on chicken.

In our efforts to keep our relationship with chicken excited, we also didn’t want to make things more complicated, so we bring you simple marinades for slow cooking chicken. Just pour it in the marinade at night, and then pour it in the slow cooker in the morning. Then pour some out for your homies. But definitely into the trash because raw chicken liquid is scary. These are so easy, future-you is already thanking you.

1. Italian Dressing

Dear Crissy

It’s that easy. Marinate chicken in Italian dressing (yep, that stuff in the bottle on the fridge door) and then slow cook while you’re doing laundry and running errands. This recipe gets a little fancy, adding lime juice and honey, which is great, but don’t let it hold you back if you haven’t got a lime handy. Pour it on, pour it out! Get the recipe here.

2. Tandoori Style Marinade

This recipe relies on yogurt to do all the tenderizing work for you, so leaving it overnight makes it even better. Simply put all the ingredients into a food processor and blend up for this one-step marinade that packs a spicy punch. Get our Tandoori Style Marinade recipe.

3. Frank’s Red Hot

Sweet Little Blue Bird

Let your chicken bathe in the all-American glory that is buffalo sauce. Let it swim like a dolphin emoji in a sea of spice, in a Ziploc bag in your fridge like a fish you won at a carnival. If you run out of time to put it in the crock-pot, just grill it! Get the recipe here.

4. Balsamic Marinated Chicken

Rosemary and soy sauce are the key ingredients to round out the balsamic marinade in this recipe. Tart and sweet, this is another easy food processor recipe with just a few ingredients before the chicken hits the slow-cooker. Get our Balsamic Marinated Chicken recipe.

5. Easy Ranch Marinade

The name says it all on this one. A packet of ranch seasoning and little vinegar make this a quick toss-together recipe no matter what you have on hand. Of course you can get fancy and make your own ranch powder, but it’s a no-brainer to keep a packet or two in the cabinet for simple marinades like this! Get the recipe here.

6. Lemon Marinade

Chowhound

Combining plenty of lemon juice with chili flakes creates a surprisingly complex flavor for slow cooker chicken while maintaining a really bright profile. Fresh squeezed is the key to this one though, so be sure and use the marinade within a few hours of making it. Get our Lemon Marinade recipe.

7. Peanut Chicken Marinade

All Recipes

This is the perfect chicken to go from dinner to lunch. Pop it in the slow cooker for a few hours and when you come home you have perfect take-out style chicken. It’ll taste even better the next say on cold noodles for lunch! Sure beats a pb&j. Get our Peanut Chicken Marinade recipe.

8. Honey Dijon Marinade

Chowhound

Just another two main ingredient marinate to yield incredible results with this honey and mustard combination.  It’s essentially an adultified version of your favorite chicken tenders from that bar in college. Hard to beat such classic flavors. Get our Honey Dijon Marinade recipe.

9. Greek Marinated Chicken

This is another recipe where the yogurt has a chemical effect on the chicken, but using  a spice profile from the other side of the globe. Oregano and garlic shine through this marinade and create a versatile Mediterranean chicken for schwarma wraps or salads. This will certainly become a dinner to lunch favorite. Get the recipe here.

How to Use a Crock-Pot

A Crock-Pot takes up a lot of counter and cupboard space, but it’s convenient and doesn’t take a lot of headspace. This no-brainer is one of our favorite cooking methods when it gets chilly outside because it’s ideal for comforting soups and stews, beans, and heavy, cheap cuts of meat that turn tender after receiving the low-and-slow cooking treatment. It even does cozy cold weather cocktails.

However, it’s also great for warm weather because you don’t have to be near the hot cooking device while it’s doing its miraculous work. That means you can do your summer hot dogs in the slow cooker, and your fall football season grub. You can also poach salmon, make party mix, and “bake” a hands-off chocolate cake, as well as craft your own condiments like blueberry butter and bacon compote. And that’s still just for starters.

In the market for one of these semi-magical devices? Check out Guide’s Best Slow Cookers of 2017.

While using a slow cooker may not be rocket science, you can mess it up. So remember these tips and get simmering.

1. Spritz some nonstick spray or rub some butter up the insides of your Crock-Pot before layering in the ingredients to prevent the foods in those areas from burning.
2. Layer sturdy ingredients—like onions and other root vegetables—on the bottom and sides, where the hotter zones are, and place more delicate ingredients—like meat—on top and in the middle.
3. Don’t pack your slow cooker more than 2/3 full. It could overflow or not cook everything evenly if you stuff too much in there. Try to keep the liquid level at least halfway up the crock though, to prevent drying or burning.
4. Brown your meat in a skillet first to get maximum, robust flavor. (Some people prefer to brown at the end to keep that crusty outer texture, but the meat is often so fall-apart soft by then, it can be tricky.) Then deglaze the skillet and add the deglazing juices to the crock. Drain off most of the fat of fattier meats like pork shoulder first, before deglazing.
5. If you want to make sure the liquid at the end is thicker, dredge your meat in flour before browning. Or add a little blend of one part cornstarch and two parts water an hour before the dish is ready.
6. Softer, more delicate ingredients, such as tomatoes and spinach, should go in during the last hour of cooking. Add dairy items, like cream, at the last half hour or less to prevent curdling.
7. When your soup or stew recipe calls for adding broth or water, add it after you put the solid ingredients in the crock, and then pour the liquid over that, to prevent overfilling. You can add more liquid just before serving if you want the broth to be thinner.
8. Season a bit more aggressively with this method because with slow cooking, the potency can fade after several hours. That’s especially true with fresh herbs, which should go in during the last 15 minutes.
9. The typical slow cooker keeps food between 180°F and about 210°F, with at least three options: high (cook for eight to 10 hours), low (four to five hours), and warm, to maintain the dish’s temperature after it’s done cooking until you’re ready to serve it. Don’t leave it at warm for more than four hours.
10. Don’t open the lid during cooking because that can lower the temperature, adding to the time you need to cook your food.
11. After you unplug the Crock-Pot, let it cool, and remove the leftovers, take out the stoneware from the heating element and put it in the dishwasher, along with the lid.

These Are the Foods You Should Have On Hand During a Hurricane

Contemplating natural disasters like hurricanes and wildfires may suppress your appetite, but we must eat to live, and gathering food supplies is an important part of being prepared to survive catastrophic events.

We have the benefit of early warning systems for many natural disasters, and most of us have the option to stock up well beforehand too—yet many of us don’t, despite knowing how mobbed grocery stores will get when trouble is on the way. You don’t have to take it to doomsday prepper levels, but it’s a good idea to have some essentials on hand just in case the worst does come to pass. Even if you’re short on space, you can find a corner of your closet or room under your bed for a small box or bag of emergency supplies and rations.

You should have a first aid kit, of course, and material supplies like flashlights, extra batteries, a utility knife, hand sanitizer, and so on. Here’s a full list of things to pack in advance. It doesn’t hurt to have a portable charger for your phone, and there are even mobile apps that are helpful to install on it ahead of time.

As for your food stores, you want to focus on nutritious, high-protein items that don’t require cooking or refrigeration, and while canned items fit that bill, it’s good to have lighter options you can carry too in case you need to leave your home. Here’s a list of suggested staples to keep on hand, whether you’re expecting a natural disaster or not. Better to be as safe and as ready as you can be.

Bottled Water + Water Filtration Device

You can last a long time without food if you absolutely have to, but water is essential. While it’s smart to keep a big supply on hand in the form of bottled water, if you end up needing to leave most of your things behind, make sure you have a water filtration device with you when you go. Be sure to check the directions well ahead of time to make sure it’s ready to use when you need it, too. Remember that you might need water for sanitation as well, and for your pets if you have them.

Coffee and/or Tea

If you’re used to your daily cuppa, it’s a good idea to stock instant versions of coffee and/or tea; caffeine withdrawal won’t help you in a tough situation, and being able to enjoy a little bit of routine amid upheaval helps you feel better too. If you won’t have a way of heating your water (maybe get some solid fuel cubes in advance), you may be even more disgruntled by the prospect of cold brew, but in that case, you could always try caffeinated gum instead.

Canned Tuna, Salmon, Sardines, Chicken, Ham

Canned meat or fish lasts a long time, and can be eaten by itself for a quick hit of protein, or mixed with some of your other staples. You might want to buy lower sodium versions since they’re healthier and also won’t make you quite as thirsty—and pop tops when you can, in case you lose track of your can opener. In the same vein of thinking ahead, since you probably have a stash of single-serve condiment packets (say, ketchup and hot sauce in your glove box from your fast food drive-through visits, or soy sauce and mustard from Chinese delivery), add those to your stores too, so you can inject some extra flavor even in dire circumstances. They’re little and light, so you can carry them without taking up much space.

Peanut Butter

A classic protein powerhouse, peanut butter can last a long time on the shelf, even once it’s opened (three months under optimal conditions).

Crackers or Crispbread

While a loaf of bread is good to have around as a vehicle for other foods, crackers or crispbread will last a lot longer and be more portable.

MREs

While they may be a last resort, MREs and freeze dried meals intended for backpackers are perfect to store away in case of emergency. Some companies provide literal buckets full of just-add-water meal options, which helps take the stress out of figuring what to buy, at least.

Cereal and Granola

Dried cereal and granola are good lightweight snacks you can tote along with you, but choose whole grain and low sugar options to maximize the nutritional value, which is also important to consider.

Dried Fruit

The shelf life for some fresh fruit, like apples and oranges, is quite long, but a lot of other produce is rather delicate and not great for storing, so dried fruit is a good choice in an emergency. Raisins, pineapples, figs, mangoes—you can buy pretty much any fruit in dried form (and do it especially economically from bulk food sections), and they’re great to have on hand for on-the-go energy.

Dehydrated Vegetables

Canned vegetables are a great choice for your pantry and will be much appreciated in an emergency, but if you need to take food with you, dehydrated produce is a lot lighter and easier to pack.

Powdered or Shelf-Stable Milk

Both conventional and non-dairy milk can be found canned or boxed, hence not requiring refrigeration. The powdered variety will be more portable, but requires water to reconstitute, so plan accordingly.

Beans

Canned beans are healthy and hearty and suitable to eat alone, or mix with other ingredients. If you purchase precooked beans in pouches, they’ll be easier to pack should you need to leave home, and while they may be best warmed up, they don’t require any additional cooking.

Precooked Rice

Similarly, precooked rice can come in handy if you find yourself without a way to boil water. You don’t have to heat it at all in order to eat it.

Nuts

Nuts provide protein and healthy fats on the move or otherwise. Trail mix is another option, though you’d be best served staying away from ones with high levels of sugar and preservatives.

Protein Bars

Lightweight, easy to pack, and quite healthy if you buy the right kind, protein bars are a no-brainer for your bug out bag.

Chocolate

Chocolate has historically been a part of military rations, but the kind designed to give soldiers a quick energy boost is not quite the same variety you’ll find in the candy bar aisle. Still, chocolate can also be good for morale, and you should plan to give yourself whatever comfort you can, so stash a few fancy bars in your emergency rations.

Pet Food

Not for you to eat (although if you’re entirely out of other options, you certainly could), but if you have pets, you’ll want to make sure they’re well supplied too. It’s a good idea to have extra portions of their accustomed food on hand just in case; even if you can find them food in a pinch, if you switch their normal formula abruptly, it could cause gastrointestinal upset, which is the last thing either of you needs in an already stressful situation.

Perishables

If you’re sheltering in place and it looks like you might lose power, or if you have enough time to safely prep food before evacuating, cook your perishables in advance—hard boil your eggs, grill or sauté your meats, steam or roast your fresh vegetables, and eat those foods first. Then turn to your shelf-stable options, and hang in there as best you can.

How to Make Your Life Easier with an Instant Pot

Pot roast in about 45 minutes. Kale. Hard-boiled eggs. Ribs. Quiche. Chicken wings. Cheesecake with no cracks in it. Steel-cut oatmeal. With an Instant Pot, these dishes are possible with less time, mess, skill, and fuss. We hear no mention of this seemingly miracle device among many of the mainstream-media chefs, but there’s a growing (not-so) underground movement bolstering this special multi-cooker.

Able to slash cooking time by 70 percent, the Instant Pot is the unexpected champion of kitchen appliances that has birthed its own genre of cookbooks, fan groups, and blogs. It does the job of seven kitchen appliances in one countertop device: pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, sauté pot, steamer, warmer, and yogurt maker. And it’s an Amazon best seller, with an average 4.7/5 rating out of almost 12,000 reviews. It’s like that old Crock-Pot craze, but multiplied by seven.

A hit for its efficiency and follow-through on all its promises, it’s especially won over busy full-time workers who have to come home and throw together meals without a plan. Besides decluttering your countertop and cooking super-fast (which is more than enough as it is!), the Instant Pot can relieve your pressure-cooker phobia with sensors to tell you when the lid is safely locked. The food world’s diverse special interest groups like the Paleo community, gluten-free eaters, and vegans are standing together behind the Instant Pot. (Why can’t it just be called the Instapot, and be done with it? Off topic…)

So check out the Instapot, ahem, Instant Pot options, and then a few of our hand-picked recipes that use them.
