Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken breasts (about 900g) You can use chicken thighs for richer flavor.
  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce (240 ml) Adjust amount according to taste.
  • 1 cup broccoli florets (90g) Add in the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in the Crockpot.
  • Pour the teriyaki sauce over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
  • In the last 30 minutes of cooking, add the broccoli florets and gently stir to combine.
  • If you prefer shredded chicken, take two forks and shred the meat once it’s done cooking.
  • Serve hot over a warm bed of rice or noodles.

Notes

For best results, sear the chicken before adding to the Crockpot for enhanced flavor. You can store leftovers for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze for 2-3 months.
