Materials

  • 3 Pounds Chicken Breast or Chicken Thighs
  • ½ Cup Honey HOT HONEY PREFERRED!
  • 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
  • ¼ Cup Soy Sauce Low Sodium
  • 2 Tablespoons Syrup Sugar Free
  • ¼ Cup Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
  • 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
  • 2 Tablespoons Chili Sauce *Optional for more kick
  • 2-4 Tablespoons Corn Starch *Optional for thicker sauce

Instructions

  • Trim the fat off of your Chicken Breast or Chicken Thighs and place them into the bottom of your Slow Cooker
  • In a small bowl, mix together the rest of your ingredients aside from your optional Corn Starch
  • Pour your mix over your chicken, adding in a bit more water if needed
  • Put your lid on and let it cook on low heat for 6-7 hours or high heat for 3-4 hours or once your chicken reaches 165F/73C
  • Optionally shred your chicken using 2 forks 10-15 minutes before it's done

How To Thicken Your Sauce

  • Optionally remove your chicken once it's done
  • Easiest method? If you made it on low heat, mix the Corn Starch directly in your slow cooker
  • Fail-proof? Make a "slurry" by mixing your Corn Starch with 1-2 tablespoons of cold water prior to mixing it in your slow cooker
  • Let your sauce cook on high heat for 20-30 minutes or until you reach your desired thickness
