One of my favorite ways to use my crockpot is with “dump” meals like this. Just throw some chicken (breasts, thighs, frozen or thawed) into your slow cooker with a bottle of sauce (prepared or homemade), and cook on low for the afternoon. Love it! I do this all the time with BBQ Chicken and Salsa Chicken, so we needed a little change of flavors.

Ingredients

• 1-2 lbs. boneless chicken breasts or thighs, sliced
• 1 onion, chopped
• 5 stalks celery, chopped
• 1 bottle Teriyaki Sauce (I used gluten-free San-J)
• 1 bag broccoli slaw--to add later
• Rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions

Use either frozen or thawed chicken in the slow cooker; just adjust the cooking time. Put the chicken, onion, and celery in the crock, then stir in the teriyaki sauce. If chicken is frozen, cook on low for 8-10 hours; if thawed, 4-6 is plenty.

A half hour before serving, add the broccoli slaw.

Serve over brown rice noodles or rice.

With veggies right in the crock, you just need some rice or noodles on the side to make a complete (and fast!) meal.

This Crockpot Teriyaki Chicken can be made gluten-free as long as you check the ingredients in your teriyaki sauce (since soy sauce contains wheat). I like San-J Gluten Free Teriyaki Sauce.
