  • 2 tbsp Oyster Sauce enhances depth; use hoisin for vegetarian.
  • 6 cloves Garlic minced; fresh garlic is best.
  • 2 tsp Fresh Ginger grated; pre-minced can be an alternative.
  • 2 tsp Toasted Sesame Oil adds nuttiness.
  • 1 tbsp Sriracha optional; adjust for spice preference.
  • 1 tbsp Chicken Broth serves as the liquid base.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In your slow cooker, combine honey, low-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, toasted sesame oil, sriracha, chicken broth, and kosher salt. Stir until blended.
  2. Place chicken thighs into the slow cooker, coating them with the sauce. Turn gently to immerse in marinade.

  5. Whisk together water and cornstarch until smooth, then mix into the sauce in the slow cooker. Cook on HIGH for an additional 10-15 minutes until thickened.
