CROCK POT ORIENTAL CHICKEN THIGHS
These have a great flavor! I have adapted this recipe to make in the crock pot, one of my favorite kitchen appliances :) They're easy and yummy served over rice and topped with sliced green onions. You may want to double the sauce ingredients if you like a lot of sauce. Also, you could easily cook over the stove if you want to throw it together quickly. I like to serve it with stir fry vegetables.
