Plan for dinner company in the morning by browning chicken thighs and then arranging them with the other ingredients in a slow cooker before you leave for work. Let the recipe cook while you're out, then simply reduce the sauce slightly before serving. The chicken is so tender, your guests will think you toiled in the kitchen all day.

Mixed green salad
