Number Of Ingredients 3

3 pounds chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
1 (16-ounce) jar peach salsa (or homemade, any flavor)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel.
  • Place one layer of chicken thighs in a 3- to 4-quart crock pot and optionally season them with salt and pepper. (If your salsa is exceptionally salty, this shouldn't be necessary.)
