Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken Thighs

This slow cooker chicken thighs recipe is easy and perfect for busy days. The chicken thighs are cooked to perfection, and the lemon gravy packs a lot of flavor. With a crockpot, you’ll have plenty of hands-off time, so you can relax while dinner cooks itself.

The slow cooker does magical things to chicken thighs. Chicken thighs become tender and practically mouth-watering when cooked in a slow cooker. It’s one of my favorite ways to use a slow cooker.
