Introduction

This was meant to be apricot chicken, but all I had in the fridge was a bottle of fig jam, so it became fig chicken. It's so good I think you could probably do it with any flavour of jam you please!

Ingredients

5 Chicken Thighs, bone and skin removed (mine were frozen)
2 cups Carrots, grated
1 jar (10oz) St. Dalfour Fig Jam (or apricot preserves is what the recipe called for)
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Onion Powder or Onion Flakes
1 tbsp Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard
1 tbsp China Lily Soya Sauce
1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
2 tsp ginger (I used fresh minced, you could also use ground dried)

Directions

This is a slow cooker crock pot recipe and it is a CINCH! It's like the guy on the infomercial says - 'Set It and Forget It' - well until the smell reminds you that there is something VERY yummy for dinner!

Line the bottom of the crockpot with the carrots. Put the chicken thighs on top (mine were frozen solid). Mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl and spread evenly over the chicken. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours. Mine was done in 4 hours on high.

Makes 6 servings. Delicious!

Serve over rice and with a side salad for a complete dinner.
