You'll get plenty of compliments on these tender chicken thighs and their sticky, sweet glaze.
Takeout dinner is not something we do often. I enjoy cooking but on occasion, I get either lazy or busy.
With this slow cooker sticky Chinese chicken, I can be both. How often do you use your slow cooker? I only remember that I have one (two, actually) when I need to bring something to a potluck at work.
No wonder they call it "set it and forget it." As soon as I set it outside of my kitchen, I forget all about it, lol. Maybe I should keep it in my cupboards, but I have more important things to store there. Where do you keep yours? Please give me some ideas!
You know that I favor easy meals that look and sound like I slaved in the kitchen all day. Especially chicken dishes are easy to make and yield delicious meals. It is true for herb-roasted chicken and Italian chicken. Serve any of these easy dishes, including this sticky Chinese chicken from the slow cooker, and you will get plenty of compliments.

This looks like such an easy recipe Jas. I know I can make it easily the only problem is I don't have a slow cooker. What would you recommend, just cook it in the oven or in a pot?
Jas says
Yes, I think either would work, just keep the temperature on the lower side so it doesn't burn. Chicken will let some juices out but it is a pretty sticky situation (pun not intended, lol) so keep your eye on it during cooking/baking. ๐
