Chicken and the crockpot were made for each other. And dark meat (thighs and drumsticks) cooks very well in this appliance without overcooking. Plus, these cuts of chicken are very inexpensive. This hearty and flavorful Crockpot Chicken Dinner will feed four, with some leftovers for lunch tomorrow!
