Place the chicken thighs skin side down into the hot oil. Saute in the oil until the skin is golden brown and some fat has rendered out. Remove the chicken from the pan, let drain on paper towels briefly to get rid of any cooking oil and then place skin side up in the slow cooker.
Whisk together the sauce ingredients until smooth and combined completely. Pour over the chicken thighs in the slow cooker, making sure to cover the tops of the chicken thighs.
