Prepare the chicken and vegetables: Cut the boneless, skinless chicken thighs into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Peel and cut the sweet potatoes, carrots, and parsnips into 1-inch chunks. Chop the yellow onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Combine ingredients in the slow cooker: Place the prepared chicken, sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, chopped onion, and minced garlic into the slow cooker. Season evenly with salt and black pepper.

Prepare the maple glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, low-sodium soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper until well combined.

Add glaze to slow cooker: Pour the maple glaze evenly over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker. Stir gently to ensure all ingredients are coated.

Cook: Cover the slow cooker with its lid. Cook on the LOW setting for 4 to 5 hours, or on the HIGH setting for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Thicken the sauce (optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, in a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water to create a smooth slurry. Stir this slurry into the slow cooker. Cover and continue to cook on HIGH for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.

Serve: Ladle the Slow Cooker Maple Chicken Medley into bowls. Serve hot, perhaps over a bed of rice or with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
