Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons dry white wine
2 tablespoons cognac
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons butter
1 whole chicken (3 to 3 1/2 lb), skin removed, cut into 8 pieces
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
40 cloves garlic (about 4 whole heads), peeled
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
4 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley, if desired

Steps:

  • Spray 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In small bowl, stir broth, wine and cognac; set aside.
  • In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil and butter over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken pieces evenly with salt and pepper. Add to skillet; cook 5 minutes, turning once, until golden. Place chicken in slow cooker.

I didn't have any chicken thighs, so I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead. It turned out great!
