Instructions
- First, brown the chicken thighs in a large skillet for 2-3 minutes. Use two tablespoons of sesame oil. This step ensures the chicken is crispy, but you can skip it and add all the ingredients to the slow cooker.
- Add all the ingredients to a 6-quart slow cooker and arrange the chicken skin side up in the slow cooker.
- Cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 7-8 hours.
Optional Cornstarch Slurry:
- To thicken the sauce, whisk the cornstarch with water in a small bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Add the cornstarch mix to the slow cooker when there are 30 minutes left of cooking. Stir gently to combine. The sauce will thicken while cooking.
Garnish and serve:
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
- Serve with rice or noodles.
