slow cooker honey garlic chicken:
Here is a recipe for slow cooker garlic honey chicken:
**Ingredients:**
* 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
* 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
* 1/3 cup honey
* 2 tablespoons tomato paste
* 2 teaspoons chili paste sambal oelek, sriracha, or hot sauce of choice
* 4 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
* 2 tablespoons cornstarch
* 1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. Place the chicken in the bottom of a 6-quart or larger slow cooker.
2. In a medium mixing bowl or very large measuring cup, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, tomato paste, chili paste, garlic, and rice vinegar.
3. Pour the sauce over the chicken.
4. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or HIGH for 2 to 3 hours,until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
5. If you are available, flip the chicken over once halfway through to coat both sides. (If not, don't stress; it will still be tasty.)
6. In the last 30 minutes of cooking, dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tablespoon of water and stir it into the sauce. This will thicken the sauce.
7. Serve the chicken with rice, noodles, or vegetables.

**Tips:**
* You can use any type of boneless, skinless chicken that you like. Chicken thighs are more flavorful, but chicken breasts will be leaner.
* If you want a spicier chicken, add more chili paste.
* If you want a more sesame flavor, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to the sauce.
* You can also add other vegetables to the slow cooker, such as carrots, broccoli, or bell peppers.
**Enjoy!**
