Budget-Friendly Meals: Slow Cooker Chicken Teriyaki


I just love our slow cooker. Having a great meal that is completely cooked by the end of the day is so wonderful! Also, if you haven't yet bought a slow cooker we highly recommend it because it never gets old finding new and exciting dishes to make with it. The bonus is the amazing smells that fill the house for the entire day. This is the slow cooker we have and it's never let us down.

This delicious meal has little prep time--20 minutes at the very most.  Serve the slow cooker chicken teriyaki with rice and egg rolls.



Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Yoshida's teriyaki sauce
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic (jarred kind)
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Steps:

Combine the Yoshida's, garlic, and ginger.  Mix well.




















Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts.  Place them into your slow cooker.

Pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over the chicken.

Make sure that each piece is evenly coated.  I did this with my hands.




















Place your slow cooker on high and cook for 1 hour.

After 1 hour, reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 5 hours.

Prepare rice and egg rolls (or desired side dishes) and serve.  In the slow cooker there will be left over sauce, it is delicious drizzled over the chicken and rice.






































Enjoy!
