Chinese Chicken

Adapted from Cleverly Inspired, I added and deleted a few items from the original recipe. Only organic ingredients were used as I was catering to the health conscious crowd – my husband.

If you like a thicker sauce, after five hours, take out the chicken and add one tablespoon or more of cornstarch. Then warm up the chicken with the thick sauce for another five minutes.

Ingredients: 
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 10 pieces
  • Sea salt and black pepper
  • 1 cup honey
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons chopped garlic
  • ½ teaspoon chopped ginger
  • ½ cup chopped scallions
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • 1 small red pepper, sliced
  • 1 small green pepper, sliced
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions: 
  1. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Place in the slow cooker.
  2. Whisk all the remaining ingredients in a bowl. Pour over the chicken. 
    Note: Coating a measuring cup with cooking spray lets the honey slide out of the cup into the bowl.
  3. Cook on low for 5 hours.
