Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Lightly season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear them in the skillet for 2–3 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix together the chili sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, and chicken broth until well combined.
Spread the chopped onions evenly on the bottom of the crockpot.
Place the seared chicken breasts on top of the onions.
Pour the chili sauce mixture over the chicken, making sure each piece is coated.
Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Once done, serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Pair with rice, mashed potatoes, or a side of roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
