Ingredients
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups broccoli florets
Instructions
Whisk the soy sauce, honey, ginger, and garlic in a medium-sized bowl until the honey is fully dissolved.
Place the chicken thighs into the slow cooker in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
Pour the teriyaki mixture over the chicken until coated evenly.
Set the slow cooker to low heat and cover with a tight lid, cooking for 5 hours.
Add the broccoli florets to the slow cooker 30 minutes before the end of the cooking cycle.
Stir the mixture gently to combine the vegetables and serve hot.
Notes
Serve over a bed of steamed brown rice or quinoa to soak up the extra teriyaki sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
