Slow Cooker Garlic and Brown Sugar Chicken
submitted by Kirstin Johnson
Ingredients:
4-6 chicken breasts (or thighs would work great too!)
1 cup packed brown sugar2/3 cup vinegar
1/4 cup lemon-lime soda
2-3 Tablespoons minced garlic
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 Tablespoons corn starch
2 Tablespoons water
Rice or noodles, cooked
Red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions:
Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Place chicken (I
used frozen chicken, thawed chicken works great too) inside slow cooker. Mix
together brown sugar, vinegar, soda, garlic, soy sauce, and pepper together.
Pour over chicken. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4 hours. Take chicken
pieces out of slow cooker (mine basically fell apart) and pour remaining sauce
into saucepan. Place saucepan over high heat. Mix together corn starch and
water, pour into saucepan, and mix well. Let sauce come to a boil and boil for
2-3 minutes, or until it starts to thicken and turns into a glaze. Remove from
heat and let sit for a minute or two (it will continue to thicken as it cools
down).
Serve chicken over rice or noodles and top with glaze. Sprinkle
red pepper flakes on top if desired.
