Easy crockpot and slow cooker dinner recipes: dump-and-go meals, chicken, beef, soups, chili and meal prep with exact LOW and HIGH times.
A boneless pork shoulder slow cooked on a bed of onions until it slices fork-tender, then broiled 3 to 5 minutes for a crisp golden top. Gravy comes from the pot juices.
Juicy sliced chicken with peppers and red onion in a smoky homemade fajita rub. 15 minutes of morning prep, then an optional 5-minute broil for charred edges.
Chicken thighs frozen in a honey-garlic soy sauce, thawed overnight and slow cooked until tender, then tossed in a glossy thickened teriyaki glaze. Pack it in 15 minutes and freeze it for up to 3 months.
Juicy shredded chicken thighs cooked with green chiles, cumin and lime, served in warm corn tortillas with lettuce, radish, cheddar and lime crema. 10 minutes of prep.
Creamy coconut chicken curry with sweet potato, cauliflower and spinach, made in a 6-quart slow cooker with 15 minutes of morning prep. Serve it over basmati rice.
Tender chicken thighs in a sticky orange-ginger sauce. You whisk the sauce in the crock, add the chicken, walk away, then thicken it for 15 minutes before dinner.
Chicken thighs slow-cooked in salsa and taco seasoning, then shredded and simmered until saucy. Four ingredients, 10 minutes of prep, 8 servings.
