8 skinless, bone-in chicken thighs (about 3 lb.)
1 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 large onion, vertically sliced
1/4 cup apricot brandy
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 (6-oz.) package dried apricots, halved
1 tablespoon cold butter
Garnish: fresh oregano

1
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add half of chicken, and cook 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Repeat with remaining oil and chicken. Transfer chicken to a 5-qt. slow cooker.
2
Add onion to skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until tender and golden brown. Add brandy, and cook 2 minutes or until liquid is almost evaporated, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet.
3
Add onion mixture to slow cooker. Whisk together honey, mustard, and chicken broth. Pour over onions. Cover and cook on LOW 4 hours or until chicken is tender, adding dried apricots halfway through.
4
Transfer chicken, onions, and apricots to a serving platter; cover with foil to keep warm. Pour liquid from slow cooker through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a small saucepan; discard solids. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium, and simmer 10 minutes or until reduced to about 3/4 cup. Whisk in butter, and serve with chicken.
