Sesame Chicken in the Slow Cooker

12/17/2021

​My kids love eating out, and sesame chicken is always a favorite. But it gets expensive, and this is an easy alternative that makes enough for everyone. Even if you have a teenager in the house.  I gave this recipe from Allrecipes a try in the Delaney Test Kitchen a while ago, and it was an instant favorite. I make it with 2 pounds of chicken just to make sure there’s some left for me. I serve it with sticky rice and roasted broccoli. It’s yummy every time. Enjoy!

 
 Sesame Chicken in the Slow Cooker

INGREDIENTS:
·       1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast
·       ½ cup honey
·       ¼ cup soy sauce
·       2 tablespoons ketchup
·       2 tablespoons dried minced onion
·       1 tablespoon vegetable oil
·       ½ teaspoon garlic powder
·       2 teaspoons cornstarch
·       3 tablespoons water
·       sesame seeds

 
PREPARATION:
·       Step 1
Spray the inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray. 
Spread chicken into the crock of a slow cooker.
·       Step 2
Stir honey, soy sauce, ketchup, minced onion, vegetable oil, and garlic powder together in a bowl; pour over the chicken.
·       Step 3
Cook on Low until the chicken is tender, about 3 to 4 hours.
·       Step 4
Remove chicken from the sauce in the slow cooker to a cutting board.
Stir water and cornstarch together to dissolve cornstarch completely; then pour into the sauce in the slow cooker until smooth.
·       Step 5
Cook on High until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
·       Step 6
Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and stir into the sauce. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the chicken and sauce mixture.

Cooking Note:
You can also cook the chicken in sauce on High for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours, if you want it finished sooner.

    It doesn't matter how successful you are or how long your day is - there is only one question when you get home: what's for dinner? That is why I am always on the lookout for recipes that won't take more that 30 minutes to prepare, that are flavorful, and that (almost) everyone will eat.
