Slow Cooker Orange Chicken


Prep. 10 minutes Total: 8 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients:
8 small boneless skinless chicken thighs (1 pound)
3 Tbsp flour
1/3 cup orange marmalade
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp grated fresh gingerroot (I didn't have fresh.)



Directions:
Toss chicken with flour.



Mix remaining ingredients.



Add to slow cooker.



Mix the chicken and marinade together coating all the chicken.



Cover with lid.



Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours (or on High for 3 to 4 hours.)



Makes 4 servings.

Verdict:

Laura - Thumbs Down - I didn't like the flavors of the marinade together. I also am not a fan of thigh meat. I won't be making this again.

Randy - Thumbs Up - The chicken was not juicy and a bit dry. Just the way I like it.

Nathan - Thumbs Down - Nathan wouldn't eat any of this chicken. It kept coming right back out. He ate broccoli and yogurt for dinner.

Leftovers: Randy ate the leftovers and they were just as good as the first night he ate it.

This is how it's been since we were married. Randy will walk up behind me while I'm cooking dinner and say, "Gross . . . I'm not eating that!" He would prefer to eat turkey tacos every night.
