Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, then sear in a single layer, skin-side down, for 4ā5 minutes until the skin is golden and releases easily from the pan. Work in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Transfer the seared chicken to the slow cooker, skin-side up, nestling the pieces into the braising liquid.
