Teriyaki Chicken in the Slow Cooker from Vicki Delany

As you know, I use my slow cooker a lot. I live alone and I find doing a meal in the slow cooker gives me several other meals to put in the freezer to enjoy later. Most slow cooker recipes are fairly simple – make sauce, cook. I tend to avoid recipes with a lot of prep such as searing the meat before adding to the cooker. This one is  a good example of a suitable recipe. It’s quick to mix the sauce. Add the chicken. Turn it on and walk away.
