Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 pounds (2 kg) skin-on and bone-in chicken thighs
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup diced shallots
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) reduced-soduim chicken broth
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) whole-grain Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy (double) cream
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- chopped fresh parsley
- 1 cup (250 ml) dry white wine
Method
Step 1
In a large nonstick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season with salt and black pepper. Working in batches, add seasoned chicken skin-side down to the skillet and cook until the skin is crisp and golden-brown, turning once, for about 6 to 8 minutes.
Step 3
Remove browned chicken from the skillet and transfer to the slow cooker. Repeat with browning the remaining chicken thighs. Remove cooked chicken from the skillet and transfer to the slow cooker.
Step 4
Add diced shallots to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened. Pour in dry white wine, scraping up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Cook until almost evaporated, about 6 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in chicken broth and whole-grain Dijon mustard and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and pour Dijon mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker.
Step 6
Cover slow cooker and cook on low-heat setting for 4-6 hours.
Step 7
Open the lid and, using tongs, transfer cooked chicken thighs to a serving platter. Cover with an aluminum foil and keep warm.
Step 8
Swith the slow cooker to high-heat setting. In a small mixing bowl, combine the smooth Dijon mustard, heavy cream, and cornstarch. Mix well. Wisk the creamy mixture into the sauce in the slow cooker.
Step 9
Cover the slow cooker and cook for further 30 minutes or until the sauce thickened. Season with salt and black pepper. Pour creamy mustard sauce over reserved chicken. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
