Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by placing the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot in a single layer.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce evenly over the chicken in the crockpot.
  4. Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours.
  5. Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken from the crockpot using tongs and let it cool slightly before shredding with two forks.
  6. In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and a bit of water to create a smooth slurry. Pour this slurry back into the crockpot with the remaining sauce.
  7. After the sauce has thickened, return the shredded chicken to the crockpot and stir it into the glossy sauce.
  8. Serve your mouthwatering Dump and Go Crockpot Teriyaki Chicken over rice or noodles, garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.
