One-Pot Honey-Garlic Chicken Dinner


This is a slow-cooker recipe. However, you can also cook it in the oven for two hours at 325°F, using a Dutch oven. Add the beans 15 minutes before completion. That’s what I did.

Ingredients 
  • CHICKEN THIGHS, 8
  • HONEY, ½ cup
  • SHOYU (SOY SAUCE), ½ cup
  • GARLIC, 4 cloves, minced
  • BASIL, dried, 1 teaspoon
  • OREGANO, dried, 1 teaspoon
  • RED PEPPER FLAKES, dried, ½ teaspoon
  • BLACK PEPPER, ½ teaspoon
  • BABY RED POTATOES, 8 small, sliced
  • CARROTS, ½ pound
  • GREEN BEANS, ½ pound

Slow Cooker Directions 
  1. Combine honey, shoyu, garlic, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in a bowl and mix well.
  2. Arrange half the chicken on the bottom of a slow cooker, and pour over half the sauce.
  3. Add the potatoes, carrots, and the other half of the chicken.
  4. Pour over the remaining sauce.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4 hours.
  6. A half-hour before serving, add the beans, re-cover, and continue cooking.

Before serving, take the chicken out and brown them under the broiler for a bit. After taking the chicken out for browning, and the carrots, potatoes and beans to arrange on the serving platter, I reduced the honey-garlic sauce and served it on the side for those who wanted extra.
