Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken combines tender chicken, red bell peppers, and onions in a super flavorful honey garlic sauce made easy right in the crockpot. Before serving, toss your favorite noodles in the sauce for a full dinner that everyone will love.
To the basin of a 6 quart slow cooker, add the cubed chicken, chopped onion, and sliced red bell pepper.
½ cup diced onion, 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, 1 medium red bell pepper
In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, ketchup, sesame oil and minced garlic until combined.
½ cup honey, ½ cup soy sauce, ¼ cup ketchup, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, 4 cloves garlic
Pour the sauce over the chicken and veggies and stir to combine.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 4 hours.
Once the cook time is up, in a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water. Pour the mixture into the sauce and stir to distribute. This thickens the sauce.
