Begin by zesting the oranges and lemons into a small bowl, then juice the fruits and set aside. In a separate bowl, mix together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and olive oil to create a glaze.
Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and half of the citrus zest. Place the seasoned chicken in the crock pot.
Pour the citrus juice and glaze over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Add the remaining citrus zest, fresh thyme, and rosemary to the pot.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
Once done, carefully remove the chicken and set it aside. Strain the cooking liquid into a saucepan and simmer over medium heat until it thickens slightly.
Serve the chicken drizzled with the reduced glaze and garnish with fresh herbs and citrus slices for an elegant presentation.
