Directions

Sear chicken

Season chicken with 4 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Cook chicken in batches, turning once, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to slow cooker. Pour stock into pan and scrape up any stuck-on bits, then pour over chicken.

Add aromatics

Add shallots, garlic, thyme, and rosemary to slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH (212°F) for 4-5 hours until chicken is very tender. Discard herb stems.

Finish sauce

During the last 20 minutes of cooking, whisk water and cornstarch in a small bowl and pour into slow cooker. Add cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Gently stir and continue to cook about 20 minutes until sauce is slightly thickened.

Serve

Divide chicken and sauce among plates. Top with fresh thyme.
