Slow cooker ginger garlic chicken

Step 1

Season chicken drumsticks with pepper to taste. Place in a gallon zip-lock bag. Add cornstarch to bag and shake until chicken is covered.

Step 2

Add the remaining ingredients. Close the bag, removing as much air as possible.

Step 3

Give the bag a gentle shake to mix everything together. Store in the freezer for up to two to three weeks.

Step 4

Remove from freezer the night before cooking. Place the bag in a large bowl or plate, and set in the refrigerator to thaw overnight.

Step 5

When all the ingredients have completely thawed, empty the bag into a 6-quart slow cooker. Make sure to get everything out, using a spoon or spatula if needed to scrape the bag.

Step 6

Cook on high for 4 hours, or on low for 8 hours.

Step 7

Serve with garlic rice.
