Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts?

Yes—just adjust cook time to about 3–4 hours on low since thighs take a bit longer to become tender.

How do I thicken the sauce if it's too thin?

Remove the chicken when done and stir in 1–2 tbsp corn starch slurry or heavy cream until the sauce thickens.

Can I prep this ahead of time?

Absolutely—prep all ingredients in the crockpot the night before, wrap, and refrigerate. Start cooking from cold in the morning.

How long will leftovers last?

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in a saucepan or microwave until warmed through.

Is this freezer-friendly?

Yes—transfer chicken and sauce to freezer-safe containers. Thaw overnight and reheat slowly on low to prevent curdling.
