Crock Pot Lo Mein Recipe
Description
This Crock Pot Lo Mein Recipe begins by placing seasoned cubed chicken in a slow cooker and covering it with a sauce made from chicken broth, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, teriyaki sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, red chili flakes, and garlic salt with parsley flakes. Cooking on low or high heat allows the chicken to absorb the complex layers of sweet, savory, and slightly spicy flavors.
Vegetables—green and red bell peppers, carrot slices, snow peas, and edamame—are added later in the cooking process to maintain their texture. A cornstarch slurry is stirred in to thicken the sauce during the final slow cooker stage. Meanwhile, linguine is cooked separately to package the dish with pasta.
The noodles are mixed into the thickened sauce and chicken in the Crock Pot before serving, coating the pasta with a rich sauce. Sesame seeds can be added as garnish for a mild nutty flavor and crunch.
