These Slow Cooker Greek Drumsticks have so much flavor and are fall off the bone good!

This Greek chicken turned out great. The chicken can be marinated over night in a ziplock bag with the yogurt marinade or it can be popped directly into the slow cooker the same day. Since the slow cooker heats up slowly, the chicken gets a bit of time to soak up the Greek flavors of the marinade.

The marinade has yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, parsley and salt and pepper. This recipe has all natural simple ingredients but has so much flavor.

Below is the chicken after cooking in the slow cooker but I also put the chicken under the broiler in the oven to get the skin crispy.

Hi! I’m trying this tomorrow with a 3lb mix of legs/breasts. I’ve coated the chicken to marinate overnight so I can dump & cook fast tomorrow. I may add additional yogurt in the morning if it looks like it needs it before adding to the CP. I’ll let you know how it goes! 🙂
Sounds great, yes let me know!
This looks really good.
Is it ok to skip the broiling? Just wondering what the texture would be like if that step is skipped.
You can skip it. You will most likely want to remove the skins before serving, for they can tend to be soggy.
