Chef’s secret

To prepare this recipe ahead of time, stop after step 3, place the slow cooker bowl into the fridge, and start cooking in the morning. This recipe is perfect for when you’re away at work for 10 hours. If you want to make it when you’re at home, you can also cook the chicken for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low, depending on the time you have. All these methods work; we’ve tested them for you!
