Instructions

  1. In a small bowl mix the rest of the ingredients together. Whisk until sauce is smooth.
  2. Place the chicken in the crockpot directly. You can cut it up in smaller pieces if using chicken breasts. Pour the sauce over the chicken and toss the chicken with the sauce so that it's fully covered. There should be enough sauce to fully cover the chicken, if not add a bit more water.
  3. Cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or high for 4 hours.
  4. Garnish with parsley or Thai basil and serve over rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Chicken selection: You can use either boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts for this recipe. Thighs tend to be more flavorful and tender, while breasts are leaner. If using breasts, be cautious not to overcook them, as they can become dry.
  • Customize the spice level: Adjust the heat in this dish to your preference by using more or less Sriracha sauce or red pepper flakes. You can also try using different types of chili sauce or paste to experiment with the spice level and flavor profile.
  • Add vegetables: Feel free to add your favorite vegetables, like bell peppers, snow peas, or baby corn, to the dish for added color and nutrition. Add them about 30 minutes before the end of cooking to ensure they remain tender-crisp.
  • Store any leftover Crockpot Thai Chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw the frozen leftovers in the fridge overnight and reheat in a saucepan over low heat until heated through.
