Simply Delicious Slow Cooker Teriyaki Chicken image

This is one of my favorite recipes because it is so simple to make and everyone loves it. We eat a lot of chicken in our home and it gets to be pretty boring when you run out of ideas of how to make plain old chicken more exciting. One of the reasons I love this recipe so much is that it is cooked in a slow cooker for 4-5 hours...

Categories     Chicken

Time 5h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 clove garlic, minced
1/2 c chopped sweet yellow onion
1/2 c honey
1/2 c low sodium soy sauce
1/4 c seasoned rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, finely chopped
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/4 c cold water
3 Tbsp cornstarch
sliced scallions
toasted sesame seeds
steamed rice

Steps:

  • 1. Add the chicken breasts to the bottom of your slow cooker in a single layer if possible.
  • 2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the garlic, onion, honey, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, and black pepper until combined. Pour the mixture on top of the chicken breasts. Cover slow cooker, and cook on high for 4-5 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and shreds easily with a fork.
  • 3. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon to a separate bowl and shred it using two forks. Transfer the remaining teriyaki sauce from the slow cooker to a medium saucepan.
  • 4. Meanwhile in a separate bowl, whisk together the cold water and cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved and no longer lumpy. Pour the cornstarch slurry into the teriyaki sauce mixture, and whisk to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, and let it boil for about 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat, and pour the sauce on top of the shredded chicken. Toss to combine.
  • 5. Serve topped with scallions and toasted sesame seeds on a bed of steamed rice.

This was a great recipe! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. I used chicken breasts and they were cooked perfectly. The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I was able to adjust it by adding a little bit of soy sauce.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different cut of chicken, such as thighs or drumsticks.

This was my first time making teriyaki chicken in the slow cooker and it turned out great! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was thick and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a winner. The chicken is always juicy and the sauce is delicious. I like to serve it with rice and steamed vegetables.

This teriyaki chicken was a hit with my family! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was flavorful and tangy. I served it over rice and it was the perfect comfort food on a cold night.
