Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • ½ cup honey
  • ⅓ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon cold water

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken thighs in the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Whisk together the honey, soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Pour the sauce over the chicken thighs, spreading it around to coat evenly.
  • Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked through.
  • In the last 30 minutes of cooking, whisk together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry.
  • Stir the slurry into the sauce in the slow cooker and continue cooking uncovered for the remaining time to let the sauce thicken.
  • Once done, you can sprinkle with the chicken with sesame seeds and green onions before serving.
  • Serve the chicken with a generous spoonful of the sauce over the top.
