Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken

Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs

Yields: 4 servings

Total Time: 3.5 to 6 hours

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

• 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

• 1/2 cup low-sodium, low-sugar ketchup

• 1/3 cup honey

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tsp dried basil

• 1 tbsp Good Shit seasoning (or your favorite all-purpose seasoning blend)

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

• 1/2 tsp ground ginger

• 1 cup cooked white rice, for serving

Instructions:

1. Prep the Chicken:
   Place chicken thighs in an even layer at the bottom of the slow cooker. Season with Good Shit, salt, pepper, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes.

2. Make the Sauce:
   In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together soy sauce, ketchup, honey, minced garlic, and dried basil.

3. Add Sauce:
   Pour the sauce evenly over the seasoned chicken in the slow cooker.

4. Cook:
   Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3.5 hours.

5. Baste:
   About halfway through cooking, spoon some of the sauce over the chicken to keep it moist and flavorful.

6. Shred the Chicken:
   With 20–25 minutes left, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker. Stir well to coat with sauce.

7. Prepare the Rice:
   While the chicken finishes cooking, prepare the white rice according to package instructions.

8. Serve:
   Serve the shredded honey garlic chicken over a bed of rice, spooning extra sauce over the top as desired.
