This is the start of a few changes in recipe choices for this site. My Internist is requesting a 40-gram low-fat diet. I try to be a compliant patient. So on to better food choices.
Based on an Allrecipe.com chicken thigh recipe. Switch out the thighs for skinless breast and decrease the honey some and increase the garlic (a wife must do).
Expert Tips: Recipe notes for Crock Pot Honey Garlic Chicken Breast
This is originally a much larger, chicken thigh recipe. I cut it down and changed to skinless boneless chicken breast.
Serve with rice and use the sauce as gravy. There is enough “sauce” to cook more meat. Perhaps twice as much but you may want more sauce for rice during serving.
Add some veggies: Oriental veggies would go great with this. Put them in the cooker the last hour or so.
The Sauce
If you want more sauce, add a half to a full cup of water.
If you want the sauce to be thicker, then add a tablespoon of cornstarch to 2 tablespoons water and add near the end of cooking.
Double the thickening solution if you add a cup of water. Add the water will dilute the taste some but there is a lot of taste and deleting some will be fine.
If you are planning to reheat later, do not thicken with cornstarch. It does not reheat well.
A sodium note. The original recipe had a half cup of soy sauce. That was heavy on the salt. I receive a lot of complaints (see comments) and now suggest only 1/4 cup of low sodium soy sauce.
