Turn the slow cooker down to low and cover. Cook the chicken for 4 to 5 hours, or until it’s cooked through and tender.
Make the Sauce Thicker:
Take the chicken out of the slow cooker after it’s done. Stir the warm water and cornstarch together to create a smooth slurry. To thicken the teriyaki sauce, gently whisk in the cornstarch mixture while the slow cooker is on the warm setting, being careful to stir well to prevent lumps.
Mix and Present:
After putting the chicken back in the slow cooker, give it a good toss to coat it in the thickened sauce. For color and taste, scatter finely sliced green onions over top.
For a full supper, serve the teriyaki chicken with your preferred veggies over a bed of steamed rice.
Adaptations and Ideas for Serving:
Add Vegetables: To give the slow cooker a vegetable boost during the final hour of cooking, add broccoli, bell peppers, or snap peas.
Add a tablespoon of sriracha or chili flakes to the sauce mixture to give it a fiery twist.
Other Sweeteners: For a different sort of sweetness, you may use honey or maple syrup in place of brown sugar.
Serving suggestions: In addition to rice, this teriyaki chicken tastes great over noodles or, for a lighter alternative, over a bed of mixed greens.
