Categories     Main Course

Time 5h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts ((about 4 medium breasts))
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup reduced-sugar orange juice
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons minced garlic (about 2 cloves)
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more to taste)
3 tablespoons cornstarch
Prepared brown rice (for serving)
Sliced green onions (optional for serving)
Sliced or slivered toasted almonds ( and/or toasted sesame seeds optional for serving)

Steps:

  • Coat the bottom of a 4-quart or larger slow cooker with nonstick spray. Arrange the chicken in the bottom, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the orange juice, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Pour over the chicken. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours on high or 5 to 6 hours on low, until the chicken registers 165 degrees F and is cooked through. With a slotted spoon, remove the chicken from the slow cooker and let cool slightly. Cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • With a mesh sieve, strain the sauce into a bowl or measuring cup. Discard the solids, then return the liquid to the slow cooker. Turn the slow cooker heat to high. Mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water to create a slurry, then stir it into the slow cooker sauce. Cover and cook on high until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes, stirring it often. Return the chicken pieces to the slow cooker and stir to coat with the sauce. Serve with prepared rice, sprinkled with green onions and toasted almonds or sesame seeds as desired.

Categories     Main Dish

Time 4h8m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium sweet potatoes (peeled, washed and cut into quarters)
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs ((about 2 pounds))
1 1/2 cups orange marmalade
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cool water

Steps:

  • Wash, peel and cut the sweet potatoes into quarters than place them in a single layer in the bottom of a 7 quart slow cooker or use the Crock Pot Casserole slow cooker like I have.
  • Season the sweet potatoes with salt and pepper.
  • Place the boneless chicken thighs on top of the sweet potatoes in a single layer and salt and pepper them.
  • In a small bowl or a spouted measuring cup mix the orange marmalade, chicken broth and minced garlic. Mix well and pour over the top of the sweet potatoes and chicken in the crock pot.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 5-6 hours. Cooking time will vary. Chicken is done when the internal temperature of the thickest piece has reached 165 Fahrenheit on a meat thermometer.
  • When the chicken thighs are done cooking transfer the chicken and sweet potatoes from the slower to a serving platter.
  • Carefully using kitchen mitts lift the hot slow cooker crock from the base and pour the pan drippings into a medium sauce pan and heat to boiling. Mix the cornstarch with the water and pour into the saucepan. Whisk and return to a boil whisking until thickened. Remove the sauce pan from the heat and pour the glaze over the chicken and sweet potatoes before serving.
  • Serve chicken and sweet potatoes over a bed of cooked white rice or cooked quinoa.
