Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken

Step 1

Place chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker.

Step 2

In a medium bowl whisk together soy sauce, honey, hoisin, vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, sriracha and the white parts only of the scallions.

Step 3

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 2 1/2 hours.)

Step 4

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.

Step 5

Transfer the liquid from the slow cooker to a small saucepan.

Step 6

Whisk 2 tablespoons of water with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Slowly add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce.

Step 7

Cook on high until bubbly and thickened, whisking constantly. Pour the sauce back in the slow cooker along with the shredded chicken and toss to coat.

Step 8

Serve immediately with sesame seeds and green onions for garnish.
