Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. chicken thighs, boneless, skinless
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp. tarragon, dried
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp. soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. cornstarch

Directions

  1. In a small bowl mix together tarragon, salt, pepper and water. Pour over chicken. Add the chicken and juices to the slow cooker. Cook on high for 2 1/2 hours.
  2. After 2 1/2 hours, mix the glaze ingredients, from 1/2 cup water to the ehd, in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the mixture starts thickening. It should start to thicken as soon as it comes to a boil.
  3. Pour the mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker and toss, so that the chicken is covered in the sauce thoroughly.
  4. Cook for an additional hour in the slow cooker on low.
  5. Remove chicken from slow cooker into a big bowl and carefully pull it apart using two forks.
  6. Serve warm with remaining glaze on the side, if preferred.

Tip

Check the thickest piece with a thermometer and cook poultry to 165°F (74°C) without relying on time alone.
