360kcal
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
Equipment
- slow cooker
- measuring cups
Method
- Place the chicken thighs in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, tomato paste, garlic, and ginger until well combined. Pour the mixture over the chicken.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water until smooth to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker sauce to thicken it.
- Increase the slow cooker to high and cook uncovered for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to desired consistency.
- Shred the chicken in the slow cooker using two forks, mixing it into the sauce.
- Serve the chicken over steamed rice, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
