I love meals where I can set it and forget it in a slow cooker yet it seems like you've slaved away for hours! This is one of those meals. I always like to find ways to liven up the flavors in my meals, especially chicken, so harissa is the star of this dish. I love how tender and juicy, and dare I say, moist, the chicken thighs remain from being slow cooked. You'll find this recipe only requires a slow cooker and a handful of ingredients: chicken thighs, harissa, bone broth, oranges, sea salt and cilantro! The acidity from the oranges pair perfectly with the spiciness of the harissa. You could also probably use any citrus in place of the oranges. Actually, whatever you have on hand will work. I've used a combo of ruby red grapefruit and meyer lemons in a dish similar to this and it was delish!

If you're not into chicken thighs, you can absolutely try this with chicken breasts.  I would definitely recommend bone in and skin on for added flavor, and it's more affordable too. Did you see my chicken fajita skillet recipe using chicken breasts? Try that one out too if you want a quick and easy chicken dinner.
