SLOW COOKER HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN
PREP TIME: 10 MINSCOOK TIME: 3 HOURS
TOTAL TIME: 3 HOURS 10 MINS
SERVES: 4
INGREDIENTS
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (2 pounds)
- ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ cup hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 scallions, sliced thin, divided (white parts for cooking, green for serving)
- 1 tablespoon cornstrach
- sesame seeds for garnish, if desired
INSTRUCTIONS
- Place chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl whisk together soy sauce, honey, hoisin, vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic and the white parts only of the scallions.
- Pour the sauce mixture ontop of the chicken and cook for 2-3 hours on low. (Cooking time depends on the thickness of your chicken. My chicken breasts were pretty small and took 2½ hours.)
- Remove the chicken from the liquid and place on a plate or cutting board. Allow the chicken to rest for a couple of minutes and then shred with two forks or slice it up with a knife.
- Meanwhile take 3 tablespoons of the liquid out of the slow cooker and pour into a small bowl. Whisk in the cornstarch until smooth and clump free. Slowly add this mixture to the liquid in the slow cooker and whisk until thickened.
- Add the shredded chicken back to the slow cooker and toss to coat it with the sauce.
- Serve immediately with sesame seeds and green onions for garnish.
