I love cooking in my slow cooker. When I have a busy day it feels so good to have supper waiting for me when I get done. This Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken just fell apart after 5 hours of cooking on low. It tastes just like the name says, sweet from the honey and garlicky. There is plenty of liquid which is great over rice or mixed in with the chicken.

Cook on low for 5-6 hours.

Check it at 5 hours and try to pull apart the chicken with two forks.

If it is cooked through and tender turn off slow cooker.

Top with green onion slices and sesame seeds.

  1. Wonderful everyday dish idea! At least I have an everyday question- what is for dinner 🙂 🙂 Thank you for sharing 🙂

  2. I love my slow cooker, too. I’m always looking for new recipes and this one is going to be the next one. There is such a freedom in putting all the ingredients in and going about other daily activities knowing you will have a great meal waiting at the end of the day. Thanks for this one!
