SLOW COOKER APPLE CIDER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the chicken thighs on the bottom of a crockpot. Sprinkle salt and pepper generously over the chicken.
• (Optional - Brown the chicken in a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat for three minutes a side before placing into the crockpot.)
• Used a small bowl to mix together the cider, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, vinegar and olive oil. Pour the marinade and fresh rosemary over the chicken, cover and set the crockpot to low and allow the chicken to cook for 6 to 8 hours.
• Transfer the chicken thighs to plates or shred the chicken for sandwiches and serve on buns.

APPLE CIDER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, add to pan and sear until golden, about 4 minutes each side. Remove chicken from pan, and set aside. Add remaining butter and onion, apple, garlic, thyme and bay leaves. Saute until apple begins to get color and onions soften, about 6 minutes. Add flour and stir 2 to 3 minutes. Nestle chicken back into pan, add cider, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook until chicken is cooked through, about 12 minutes.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN AND APPLES

Steps:

• Sprinkle salt and pepper all over the inside of the chicken. Put the whole apple inside the chicken cavity and place chicken into a slow cooker, breast-side down. Pour apple juice around chicken.
• Cook on Low until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 4 to 6 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the slow cooker, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.
