Crock Pot Oriental Chicken Thighs

This recipe was on Pinterest. I sprinkled toasted sesame seeds on top. Also I added celery and chopped scallions which I saute briefly. Serve with brown rice or rice noodles. This is YUM!

Ingredients:

• 10 boneless skinless chicken thighs
• 5 teaspoons olive oil
• 1/3 cup warm water
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons orange juice
• 2 tablespoons tamari
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon allspice
• 2 tablespoons fresh chopped onion
• 2 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions:

Place the chicken thighs in a lightly greased crock pot.

Combine olive oil, water, brown sugar, orange juice, ketchup, vinegar, garlic, red pepper, allspice and onion. Pour over thighs, cover and cook on low 5 hours.

Combine the cornstarch and water; add the slurry into the crock pot and stir. Cook on high 30 minutes.
