Steps:
- Line a 3 to 6-quart slow cooker with a liner if using one. I prefer to use liners for easy cleanup.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over bottom of the liner or slow cooker.
- To a large, gallon-sized ziptop plastic bag, add the chicken, cornstarch, salt, pepper, seal bag, and toss to coat chicken evenly. Add chicken to slow cooker, evenly distributed; set aside.
- To a 2-cup measuring cup or medium bowl, add the orange marmalade, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, ginger (I prefer 1 teaspoon but some people are sensitive to ginger), garlic, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and stir to combine.
- Pour mixture over the chicken, using a spoon to distribute the sauce as necessary, making sure all pieces are coated.
- Cook covered on high for about 2 hours or on low for about 4 hours. If cooking on high, start checking at 90 minutes and if cooking on low, start checking at 3 hours. All slow cookers vary so cook until chicken is done (reaches 165F on an instant read thermometer).
- Add chicken to a plate with as much extra cooking sauce spooned over the top as desired, garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, optional orange wedges, and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use bottled orange juice, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker. If you have too much chicken in the slow cooker, it will not cook evenly.
- Cook the chicken on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The cooking time will depend on the size of your chicken breasts.
- Serve the chicken over rice or noodles. You can also serve it with a side of vegetables.
Conclusion:
Slow cooker orange chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
