Yesterday I worked on two new recipes. They both turned out yummy!! I
might make a few changes next time around. First up, I prepped the slow
cooker for Teriyaki Chicken.
 |
| You'll need these ingredients: 3/4 c sugar, 3/4 tsp. ground ginger, 3/4 tsp. minced garlic, 1/4 tsp. pepper, 3/4 c soy sauce, 3/4 c cider vinegar, 4 1/2 tsp. COLD water, 4 1/2 tsp. + 3 additional tsp. cornstarch and 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts. |
|
|
 |
| Combine sugar, ginger, garlic and pepper. |
|
 |
| Mix together soy sauce and cider vinegar. Pour into dry mixture. |
| Whisk together. |
 |
| Pour combined ingredients over the chicken. Cook on low 4-5 hrs. | |
 |
| Once cook time is up, remove chicken and place in bowl with tin foil to
keep warm. Skim fat off the juice left in the slow cooker. Pour the
remaining liquid into a saucepan. Bring to boil. |
 |
| While waiting for sauce to boil, mix together Cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Gradually stir into the liquid. I whisked until the sauce became thick. I didn't skim enough of the fat off the top before boiling, so large clumps formed in the bottom of the saucepan. I waited til sauce had thickened then strained it to make a nice, smooth sauce. |

 |
| Final product! Yum!! The sauce was perfect. The chicken was a bit dry. I would probably shorten the cooking length next time around or invest in a smaller crock pot. We only have a large at the moment. |
