INGREDIENTS

• 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (i used three fat boneless skinless breasts 'cause it's what I had on hand)
• 16 ounces baby red potatoes, halved (i used Yukon Gold 'cause it's what i had on hand - no idea how many ounces.  I used "enough")
• 16 ounces baby carrots ( i had a partial bag of fresh carrots, i just US d what i had)
• 16 ounces green beans, trimmed (didn't have fresh green beans, so i used some frozen, no idea how many ounces, but " enough")
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

FOR THE SAUCE

• 1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (i did not use any of this)
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, ketchup, garlic, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes and pepper.
• Place chicken thighs, potatoes, carrots and soy sauce mixture into a 6-qt slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat for 7-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, basting every hour. Add green beans during the last 30 minutes of cooking time.
