In a small bowl combine cumin, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, salt, pepper, cayenne, garlic, lemon juice, and yogurt to form a sauce.

Add chicken thighs and onion to the slow cooker. Add sauce to slow cooker and stir to coat the chicken and onions.

Slow cook for 7-8 hours on low OR 3-4 hours on high until chicken is tender.

When chicken is done turn your oven to broil. Transfer chicken and onions to a sheet pan, leaving the juice in the slow cooker. Shred the chicken and spread out to an even layer on the sheet tray.
