Came home tonight after a long day at work to our sweet and sour chicken thighs. The dish turned out well. I will say that it needed a bit more salt. Also, if you’re going to make this in the slow cooker, pull all skin off of your chicken thighs. I knew enough to remove a large amount of skin but wanted some left for flavor. I had to skim off a bit of fat at the top of the liquid before we ate.
Thoughts for improving in the future would be to add more of the following:
Salt, pepper, cinnamon, lemon (would add zest and juice next time). To make a truly one pot meal, I would add potatoes. We served the chicken and vegetables today over mashed potatoes.
