Begin by gathering all your ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process. In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to create a tangy marinade.
Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs in the crock pot and pour the honey mustard mixture over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.
Core and slice 2 medium apples into wedges, then add them to the crock pot around the chicken. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of dried sage and 1/2 teaspoon of salt over the top for added flavor.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken and apples from the crock pot, and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
For a delightful presentation, serve the chicken on a bed of cooked rice or quinoa, topped with the apple wedges and a drizzle of the remaining sauce from the crock pot.
Enjoy your delicious and unique honey mustard chicken with apple and sage infusion!
