Slow Cooker Maple Mustard Chicken

This healthy dish is so tasty and super easy to put together, it tends to itself while you are away. I get this ready in the morning on a workday and come home to a tasty main dish. The original recipe is from a slow-cooker weekly meal plan and it called for serving this with green beans but it works well with any steamed vegetable.

INGREDIENTS

2 pounds chicken drumsticks, skins removed

2 tablespoons maple syrup

1/3 cup Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

DIRECTIONS

Place all the ingredients together in a slow cooker and mix well to coat all chicken pieces.

Cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 8 hours.

Enjoy!
