INGREDIENTS:
- Four chicken thighs
- A bit of flour for dredging
- 1/2 cup of orange juice
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 2 tbsp of minced garlic
- 2 tbsp of ketchup
- 1/2 cup of orange marmalade
First, you want to go ahead and set your slow cooker on low.
Next, coat the three chicken thighs in the bit of flour. After this is done, just leave it on the side for now.
Combine the orange juice, marmalade, soy sauce, garlic and ketchup in a small bowl. Stir until well blended.
Next, place the coated chicken thighs into the slow cooker. After placing the chicken inside the cooker, pour the sauce you’ve just prepared on top. Make sure to get everything inside the slow cooker!
Once you have everything in there, give the chicken thighs a nice toss inside the slow cooker. This helps the sauce get underneath the chicken.
Finally, place the lid on the cooker. Cook on LOW setting for 4 hours.
To serve, place chicken on the desired plate and pour a bit of the sauce on top. This dish also goes really well with a side of rice.
