Crock Pot Honey Chicken and Rice |

Comfort food just got a whole lot easier with this Crockpot Chicken and Rice!

This is an easy and delicious Crock Pot chicken recipe. It’s a fantastic slow cooker meal that your family will love. Use the piece of chicken you prefer. We chose boneless, skinless chicken thighs. The chicken is cooked in a sauce made from soy sauce, honey, ketchup and spices. It’s sweet and savory. Initially the sauce will be thin, so if you prefer a thicker sauce we recommend using the cornstarch mixture. Delicious served with rice and a vegetable on the side.

This is a complete meal in one pot, perfect for busy weeknights or lazy weekends. I promise you will love it as much as we do.

How to make crockpot honey chicken and rice

Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless chicken
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/8 cup chopped onion
• 1/8 cup ketchup
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons corn starch
• 1/4 cup water

Directions

1. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Put it in the Crockpot. Combine honey, soy sauce, onion, ketchup, oil, garlic and pepper flakes.
2. In a small bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, onion, ketchup, oil, garlic, and pepper flakes.
3. Pour over the chicken.
4. Cook on high for 2 – 3 hours or on low for 4 – 5 hours.
5. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it and cut it into bite-sized pieces. Whisk 2 tablespoons cornstarch with 1/4 cup water to thicken the sauce.
6. Pour the mixture into the Crock Pot and whisk to combine.
7. Add the chicken back to the Crock Pot. Place the lid back on and cook on high for 30 – 45 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened. Once the sauce has thickened, serve the chicken and sauce over the rice of your choice.

Note: We used boneless, skinless chicken thighs. If it has honey in it, it will burn around the edges. To prevent this, you can use a liner or stir around the edges every hour.
