                  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme and 2 sprigs fresh rosemary for fragrant herb power.<\/li>\n
                  • 2\u20133 pounds bone-in chicken breasts or thighs, because the bone adds a ton of flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                    <\/div>\n
                      \n
                    • Juice plus zest of 1 lemon and \u00be cup dry farro for bright and chewy finishes.<\/li>\n
                    • \u00bd cup fresh cilantro and\/or mixed herbs to stir in at the end for fresh green pop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                      The Exact Process From Start to Finish<\/h2>\n

                      Step 1. Melt butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toss in chopped onions, carrots, parsnips, celery, and leeks. Saut\u00e9 about 5 to 7 minutes till veggies start to soften up and get a little golden around the edges.<\/p>\n

                      Step 2. Transfer the saut\u00e9ed veggies into your slow cooker. Pour in the chicken stock, then drop in whole peppercorns and the bay leaf. Give it a gentle stir to mix everything nicely.<\/p>\n

                      Step 3. Nestle your bone-in chicken right on top. Sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper any way you like.<\/p>\n

                      Step 4. Cover that slow cooker with the lid and set to cook low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4. You\u2019ll hear the sealing ring buzz as it heats and the pressure build up, then steam cues as it\u2019s nearing done.<\/p>\n

                      Step 5. When the timer\u2019s up, check if chicken\u2019s got that tender pull you want. Remove it carefully and shred or chop the meat, then toss it back to the pot.<\/p>\n

                      Step 6. Add in the farro and lemon zest plus juice. Cook uncovered for another 15 minutes or till the farro\u2019s perfectly chewy. Finish with fresh cilantro or herbs tossed in at the end. Taste and season more if you gotta.<\/p>\n
