Love one pot meals!

This warm weather is perfect weather for my flowers, they have never looked so good! My geraniums, some of them 5 years old, are on our front steps.

I am always on the look out for a meal that I can toss together, put in the crock pot and forget until its time to eat! The recipe I am sharing with you today fits the bill and in this warm weather a crock pot doesn’t heat up your kitchen! I always remove the skin from the thighs before cooking, but that’s my personal preference. I think you will like this one!
 
Honey Garlic Chicken
 4-6 whole chicken thighs
1 # baby red potatoes
1 bag baby carrots
1 # green beans, trimmed (I don’t always use)
 
Sauce ingredients: mix together
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
4 cloves garlic, chopped fine
1 tsp. sweet dried basil
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 tsp. pepper
 
Place chicken thighs at the bottom of the crock pot, Pour 1/2 of the sauce over meat, then add potatoes and carrots then remaining half of sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. Add green beans last 30 minutes of cooking time.
 
Have a great week!
