Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs ( and/or drumsticks)
- 1 head garlic
- 2 whole jalapeño ( or serrano chilis)
- 1 cup diced onion
- 4 bay leaves
- salt and black pepper
- ¾ cup apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup less sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup brown sugar
Steps
-
Heat the olive oil in large skillet over medium heat.
-
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken in the skillet until golden brown and crispy on all sides, approximately 10-15 minutes. Transfer to the slow cooker.
-
Cut the garlic lengthwise to expose the top of the garlic cloves being careful not to break the bulb apart. Transfer the garlic to the slow cooker.
-
Thinly slice the chilis removing the seeds to make it less spicy, if desired. Add to the slow cooker along with diced onions.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients and pour over the chicken. Top with the bay leaves.
-
Cover the slow cooker and cook for 4 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low.
-
Remove bay leaves. Serve the chicken over white rice and spoon the sauce over the chicken.
