Upstart focuses on borrowers who may not have traditional credit scores but do have a solid work history and education. The typical applicant is a recent college graduate with good GPA and SAT scores. Applicants must have at least a 620 credit score, but there is no requirement for the length of credit history or income.
Place onion in a lightly greased 6-qt. slow cooker; top with potatoes and carrots. Combine broth, next 3 ingredients, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pour broth mixture over vegetables. Combine paprika, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper; rub evenly over chicken thighs. Arrange chicken on top of vegetables. Cover and cook on HIGH 1 hour; reduce heat to LOW, and cook 6 to 7 hours or until chicken is done and vegetables are tender.
If the chicken thighs are skinless, brush them with oil or butter to keep them from drying out, though chicken breasts are more susceptible to this issue. If in a braising liquid, the thighs may cook faster, from 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the temperature.
