Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crockpot Teriyaki Chicken
  1. Start by trimming any excess fat from the chicken thighs or breasts, then cut them into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine your teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, freshly minced garlic, and grated ginger. Whisk everything together until well-blended.
  3. Layer the chicken evenly at the bottom of your Crockpot.
  4. Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is generously coated.
  5. Next, layer the colorful bell peppers and broccoli on top of the chicken.
  6. Cover the Crockpot and set it to cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours.
  7. If you prefer a thicker sauce, once cooking is complete, carefully remove the chicken and vegetables. Bring the sauce to a gentle boil to reduce.
  8. When ready to serve, gently mix the Crockpot Teriyaki Chicken and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
