When you’re craving comfort food, make these garlic chicken thighs in the slow cooker! They are super tender, full of flavor, and perfect with creamy mashed potatoes.
I love a really easy meal that you can make in the slow cooker. When fall rolls around, it feels like we are being pulled in so many different directions. An easy, tasty dinner that requires minimal work is very welcome!
Chicken thighs cook slowly and become super tender and delicious, and the garlicky sauce they are cooked in goes so well with potatoes or a piece of bread or toast.
These slow cooker garlic chicken thighs are warm, cozy, allergy friendly comfort food at its best. I think you’ll love this simple dinner!

Ingredient Notes
- Chicken Thighs – I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs to make this quick and easy. You could do bone in thighs if that’s what you have on hand.
- Vegan Buttery Spread – I love the buttery flavor that Earth Balance vegan buttery spread lends to this dish. If you can’t do vegan butter, just substitute olive oil.
- Garlic – Fresh garlic cloves give these chicken thighs a delicious savory flavor.
Step by Step Instructions

- Cook on high for 4 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours.
- Serve with mashed potatoes or any side dish of your choice. Enjoy!
