I found this on the Six Sisters' blog and had to try it. I can never get the sauce to thicken in the crock pot so I put the juices in a separate pan, add the cornstarch and cook it on the stove but I posted as it was written.

Tips:

For a crispy chicken, make sure to pat dry the chicken pieces before cooking. You can also coat the chicken in cornstarch before cooking to help create a crispier exterior.
If you don't have a crock pot, you can also make this recipe in a slow cooker. Just cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through.
If you want a thicker sauce, you can simmer it for a few minutes after cooking. You can also add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the sauce to thicken it.
Serve this dish over rice, noodles, or vegetables. You can also add a side of steamed broccoli or carrots.
