EASY CROCK POT TERIYAKI CHICKEN



Easy Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken image

From the "Fix it and Forget It" cookbook of crockpot recipes. Turns out with little effort. We enjoy it served over rice, with a salad on the side. I also use jarred ground ginger and jarred minced garlic--comes out just as well. I often double the sauce ingredients that go on top of the chicken--if you like it with more sauce, I suggest you do this. I also use low-sodium soy sauce, otherwise it will be really salty.

Categories     Chicken Thigh & Leg

Time 13m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 -8 skinless chicken thighs
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced

Steps:

  • Wash and dry chicken. Place in slow cooker.
  • Combine remaining ingredients. Pour over chicken.
  • Cover. Cook on high 1 hours Reduce heat to low, cook 6-7 hours. (Again, I wanted to start this in the morning and have it for dinner that evening, so I cooked it only on low for about 9 hrs and it turned out perfectly--fall off the bone tender. I think you can adjust times as you see fit.).

Tips:

  • When choosing chicken thighs, opt for boneless, skinless thighs for a tender and juicy result.
  • For a more intense teriyaki flavor, marinate the chicken in the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of honey and brown sugar in the sauce to suit your taste preferences.
  • To add a touch of heat to the dish, include a teaspoon or two of Sriracha or chili sauce to the marinade.
  • Serve the teriyaki chicken with steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a side salad for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

This easy crock-pot teriyaki chicken recipe is a flavorful and versatile dish that can be enjoyed with various accompaniments. The slow-cooking method ensures tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken, while the teriyaki sauce adds a delicious and slightly tangy flavor.
