Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 4 thighs skinless, boneless chicken
  • 0.5 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 0.5 cup ketchup
  • 0.33 cup honey
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions
 

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Arrange chicken thighs in a single layer in the bottom of a 4-quart slow cooker.
  • Whisk low-sodium soy sauce, ketchup, honey, garlic, and a pinch of salt together in a bowl; pour over chicken thighs.
  • Cover and cook on Low for 4 hours or on High for 2 to 3 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Mix cornstarch and water together in a small bowl to make a slurry; stir into the sauce. Cover and cook on High for about 15 minutes more, until sauce thickens slightly.
  • Serve chicken with sauce spooned over the top. Enjoy!
