Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken
Report
Crock Pot Teriyaki Chicken cooked in a delicious homemade teriyaki sauce, then shredded and served over a bed of rice, a healthy and easy dinner recipe with an Asian touch. The chicken is so tender that it simply melts in your mouth, and the sauce gives such a great flavour.

Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoon light soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon wine rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger Puree
- ½ tablespoon corn flour (corn starch)
- Green onions to garnish
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
- In a bowl, mix the soy sauces, sesame oil, honey, sugar, garlic, ginger and vinegar, and give it a good stir.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken, and leave to cook on high for 3.5 hours, or on low for 5.5-6 hours.
- Remove the chicken breasts from the crock pot and shred using 2 forks.
- Pass the sauce through a sieve, and add it to a pan set over a low to medium heat on the stove top.
- Mix the corn flour with 2 tablespoons of water, then add it to the sauce.
- Stir gently until the sauce thickens, then pour it over the shredded chicken, and mix well to coat.
- Serve the chicken with rice, and garnish with chopped spring onions.
Notes
- Now, I like the sauce a bit thicker that the clear one. You could add the corn starch directly to the crock pot and leave it to cook for about 20-30 minutes longer until the sauce thickens, but I prefer to get rid of the bits left after cooking the chicken, the sauce is then clear and smooth.
- Plus, it only takes about 2 minutes or less to finish the sauce on the stove top, you you might as well get it done this way. The chicken is already flavourful since it was cooked in the sauce, but adding more sauce over makes it absolutely delicious.
- Also, you don't need to shred the chicken, it's up to you, you can leave the chicken breasts in one piece and pour the sauce over them either in the crock pot, or when you serve them on the plate.
