Crock pot skinless chicken thighs, microwaved sweet potatoes with chicken juice
poured over them, peas. My loved one's mother was impressed.

I tried cooking skinless breasts in the crockpot and they got SO tender they
were impossible to eat other than shred them and put barbque sauce on them.
How do you manage to cook chicken in a crockpot without it becoming soup?

I occasionally made chicken thighs (not boneless) in the crock pot at work
for pot lucks. The night before, I'd season them lightly with salt & pepper
and brown them under the broiler on a slotted broiler pan to let the excess
fat drain off. (I'd buy the 'family paks' so I had to broil them in
batches.) I'd place them in the crock pot and then pour over about a cup of
teriyaki or light soy sauce, a minced onion, a couple of cloves of garlic,
several slices of ginger and a couple of Tbs. of dry sherry. The crock went
into the fridge tightly covered with foil. The crock went into the cooker
and was taken to the office. Once I got to work (I always got there before
7 AM) I'd set the crock pot on LOW and let them slow cook until lunch time.
They were very tender, very flavourful and didn't fall apart. There were
never any leftovers.

I dunno. ;-) I put it in with one fourth cup of water and one fourth cup of
vinegar, plus my freebie spice from Penzey's.
