Slow Cooker Chicken with Apricots and Dates

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Fowl/Poultry LowCal (Less than 300 cals)
LowerCarbs LowFat (Less than 20%)

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 pounds chicken meat -- boneless, skinless chicken thighs are best
1 large yellow onion -- finely diced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup coarsely chopped dried apricots
1/2 cup coarsely chopped dried pitted dates
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup orange juice
To serve: -- cooked quinoa or brown rice

Put the chicken in the bottom of a 4 to 6-quart slow cooker.

My chicken was frozen solid. If you are using fresh chicken, shave off about 90 minutes or so of cooking time.

Add the diced onion and spices. Sprinkle on the apricots and dates. Pour the juice and broth evenly over the top.

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or on high for 3 to 5 hours. The chicken should be quite tender and shred easily with a fork. If your chicken isn't tender enough, stir well and cook for a bit longer on low.

Serve over quinoa or brown rice wiht a ladelful of the juices - the broth is indeed delicious.

Serves 6
