Why You’ll Love This

I’m going to show you how to make tender, juicy, delicious teriyaki chicken, but your slow cooker is going to do all the work.

It doesn’t have to be difficult to be delicious.

Ingredients

brown sugar
soy sauce
rice vinegar
honey
minced garlic
pepper
ginger

For the Slurry

cornstarch
cold water

Instructions

Make up our little teriyaki sauce.
Get in a bowl.
Whisk this together.
Pour it on top.
Add the lid.
Slow cook this on low for six to eight hours.
To thicken the sauce, make a cornstarch slurry.
Mix a little bit of cornstarch with some cold water.
Pour it into your sauce.
If you’re in a slow cooker, you would just let it slowly thicken in like 30 minutes on high.
When you have a five of one slow cooker, you just switch it to a saute setting.
Then it gets it done in five minutes.
A regular crock pot will work.
You’re just going to let it cook for an additional 30 minutes after you mix in that cornstarch.
Once it’s finished, I will lightly shred the chicken into big chunks.
I will thicken the sauce.

Cooking Tips

Normally I would tell you to spray your cup before you pour your honey in, but since I already had all those liquids in the same measuring cup, it kind of helps to make it not stick to your measuring cup.

You don’t have to be sensitive and you don’t like ginger.

It’s only a half a teaspoon, so you don’t need a lot, but you could.

I have several people who don’t like ginger, and they just leave it out, and that’s perfectly okay.

You do you, okay?

You do you, boo.

Serving Suggestions

We’ll serve it on white rice.

I like to top with some sesame seeds and some sliced green onions if you’d like.

Super simple, super easy. It doesn’t have to be difficult to be delicious. Okay, thanks so much for joining. I’ll see you on the next show. Bye, friends.
