A comforting Crockpot Honey Sesame Chicken recipe that transforms simple ingredients into a sweet, tangy masterpiece, perfect for family dinners or gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Sesame seeds for garnish
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sauce: In a crockpot, mix together honey, soy sauce, ketchup, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until well combined.
  2. Coat the Chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the crockpot, ensuring they are well coated with the sauce for maximum flavor.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, allowing the flavors to develop and the chicken to become tender and juicy.
  4. Shred the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, take it out and shred it using two forks. The chicken should fall apart effortlessly.
  5. Thicken the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir it into the sauce in the crockpot and cook on high for an additional 30 minutes to thicken the sauce to your desired consistency.
  6. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the shredded chicken to the pot, ensuring it’s well mixed with the sauce to soak up all that delicious flavor.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Serve your honey sesame chicken hot, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for a fresh, crunchy finish.

Notes

For extra flavor, try marinating the chicken in the sauce for a couple of hours to overnight before cooking. Use a liner in your crockpot for quick cleanup.
