Recipe by David Bonom White meat can dry out after a long haul in the slow cooker, so we opt for bone-in thighs to guarantee optimal flavor and succulence. Make prep easier with prepeeled garlic, and pretty-up the platter with lemon slices and thyme spri

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 cup unsalted chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
  • 6 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 pounds)

  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
  • 1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes, scrubbed
  • 40 garlic cloves, peeled

  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Coat bottom and sides of a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
