Time 6h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 2 pounds total)
1/3 cup honey
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons minced peeled fresh ginger (from a 1-inch piece)
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Chopped scallions, toasted sesame seeds and cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the chicken thighs in an even layer in the slow cooker.
  • Whisk together the honey, soy sauce, crushed red pepper, garlic, ginger, vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil and a few good grinds of black pepper in a large glass measuring cup or a medium bowl until combined.

  • Turn the slow cooker up to high. Whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl to make a slurry, then mix the slurry into the sauce until combined. Submerging the sauce in the sauce as much as possible. Cover and cook on high until the sauce is thickened to the consistency of a glaze, about 30 minutes.
