How To Make Honey Garlic Chicken in the Slow Cooker

1. Mix Sauce - Mix up the sauce ingredients with a fork.
2. Add To Crock Pot - Add the chicken breasts to a crockpot and pour over the sauce.
3. Slow Cook - Cook the chicken on High for about 2 hours or on Low for about 4 hours, or until fully cooked.
4. Shred and Serve - Shred the chicken breasts and stir into the sauce.

Storage and Freezing

• Storage - The cooked and shredded chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
