Notes

Feel free to use chicken thighs instead of breasts for juicier results. You can adjust the sweetness of the dish by modifying the amount of sugar or using honey as a substitute. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days or can be frozen for up to 3 months. For a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with water and add it to the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Enjoy your meal with rice or in lettuce wraps!
