Crockpot Bourbon Chicken


New Year, new job, new recipes!

My sort of mantra this year is "make the effort." Personally, professionally, and all that jazz.
Perhaps I should apply that mantra to posting on here more often? :)

In preparing for winter storm Jonas, this crockpot bourbon chicken recipe were one of the couple that peaked my man's interest, and did not require a plethora of ingredients outside our pantry.
But, due to people stocking up because of aforementioned winter storm/blizzard,
2 grocery stores were out of green onions. Sad...how I love them so.

The sauce is easy enough to make, smells yummy when poured over the chicken thighs.
So far easy, right?

Well, after cooking in the crockpot, you have the drain and thicken and add things...
it left my man swearing profusely. 
If you are going to make it, tweak the recipe when it comes to that section.

It's tasty, not amazing, or worthy of yummalicious levels.
Tastes like it is missing something,
perhaps adding green peppers or water chestnuts would help?


Difficulty Level: 3. Again, the thickening part needs adjusting
Yum Factor: 3. Adding some veggies would make the rating higher.
