Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Chicken and Green Beans

Servings: 4
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds bone-in, skinless chicken thighs (about 4 to 6 thighs)
  • 2 (14.5-ounce) cans cut green beans, drained
  • 1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more to taste)

Method
 

  1. Place the raw chicken thighs in an even layer on the bottom of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. If any pieces are very large, tuck them in so everything fits snugly.
  2. Sprinkle the kosher salt evenly over the chicken thighs. This simple seasoning will help the chicken flavor the broth and vegetables as they cook.
  3. Spoon the condensed cream of mushroom soup over the chicken, spreading it gently so most of the chicken is lightly coated. Do not add extra water; the chicken and green beans will release enough liquid.
  4. Dump the drained canned green beans over the top of the chicken and soup, spreading them into an even layer. It’s fine if some beans fall down around the sides.
  5. Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours, or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is very tender and easily pulls away from the bone.
  6. Taste the cooking liquid and green beans, and add a pinch more salt if needed. Serve the chicken thighs with plenty of green beans and spoonfuls of the savory broth over the top.
