Today I am sharing my Slow Cooker Moroccan Chicken with y’all and my new friends over at Beauty Through Imperfection. I am so excited to the have the opportunity to be a new contributor to their amazing blog!

So seriously…check her out 🙂
Now back to Slow Cooker Moroccan Chicken…sounds exotic doesn’t it? Take ten minutes in the morning to throw off of these wonderful ingredients in your slow cooker and come home to a house that smells wonderful and dinner that is piping hot and ready!! Boneless skinless chicken thighs stay moist and flavorful. Fresh veggies, two types of beans, lentils and brown rice pump up the fiber content. Fresh herbs and spices like turmeric, saffron, ginger and cinnamon add ton of flavor and have powerful antioxidant properties.
The turmeric in my Slow Cooker Moroccan Chicken is an amazing spice. Just a little dash and it livens up the dish and really gives it that Moroccan flare. If you have never tried turmeric, you really should give it a shot. It is a potent, yet safe anti-inflammatory. It’s anti-inflammatory effects have been shown to be comparable to the potent drugs hydrocortisone and phenylbutazone as well as over-the-counter anti-inflammatory agents such as Motrin.
