Recipe
3 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thighs, whatever
1 onion, minced
3/4 c honey
1/2 c soy sauce
1/4 c ketchup
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp ginger, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 tsp red pepper flakes
4 tsp cornstarch
1/4 c water
salt & pepper
rice (optional)
sesame seeds (optional)
Season your chicken with a little salt and pepper, and put into the crockpot. Add your onions. Mix together the honey, soy sauce, ketchup, oils, ginger, garlic, and red pepper, then pour over everything. Cook on low for 4-5 hours.
One more step: Once it's done, remove the chicken. Whisk together the cornstarch and water, and stir into the broth. Cook on high another 15 minutes, then serve - over rice, with sesame seeds sprinkled on top, etc.
Notes
I put this together in a flurry of about 20 minutes (although I forgot the garlic). Then it did the crockpot thing sitting around for an afternoon, and now it is super delicious (I also forgot the sesame seeds at first). Rice (or something similar/paleo) is a must, because the sauce is so good... It might be worth tearing apart the chicken a little bit toward the end so that the juice can better sink in... Definitely worth coming back to, testing some little additions (sriracha? more veggies? etc.).
yeah, could use some veggies... |
