Asian Style Crock Pot Chicken

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Asian Style Crock Pot Chicken uses coconut aminos, honey, coconut oil, and tomato paste to transform chicken thighs in the magic of the Crock Pot in 4 hours.  We love to pair it with green beans and Freezer Friendly Instant Pot Brown Rice! This post contains affiliate links for products I’m obsessed with.  

Confession #71 – I, too, have my share of kitchen fails.

I hope you all realize that.

The worst is when I get a great pic of something for the blog…and then I taste it, and it’s just ok.

Nobody wants to spend money or time on food that’s just ok.

Or worse. 

I hope you trust in me that I only share the very best of what happens in my kitchen with you.

21 day fix honey Asian chicken

Like this dish.  Which, in my opinion, rivals the best Asian takeout restaurant in my town.

Honey and coconut aminos do amazing things together when left alone in the crock pot.   New to coconut aminos?  Here is a post about what it is and why I love it!

Oh…and it’s completely clean, gluten free, and dairy free.  My food sensitive toddler gobbled it up.

If you give it a try, let me know what you think!

Description

Asian Style Crock Pot Chicken uses coconut aminos, honey, coconut oil, and tomato paste to transform chicken thighs in the magic of the Crock Pot in 4 hours.  We love to pair it with green beans and Freezer Friendly Instant Pot Brown Rice!


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1–2 lbs of boneless skinless chicken thighs (1lb for 4 servings)
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 1/3 cup of coconut aminos
  • 1 T tomato paste
  • 2 tsp coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • a dash of crushed red pepper
  • 2 tsp rice flour (optional) or sub whatever flour you have

Instructions

  1. Place chicken in the crock pot
  2. In a small bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients together.
  3. Pour over chicken and cook in crockpot on low for 4 hours.
  4. Once finished, remove chicken and cut into cubes.
  5. To thicken sauce, either keep in crock pot for a few additional hours with lid off, or use a saucepan and whisk in two teaspoons of flour, if desired, and cook for a few minutes, stirring frequently.
  6. Serve chicken and sauce over rice or quinoa and your choice of veggie.

Notes

21 Day Fix- 1 RED, 1 tsp (this is just the chicken, not the sides)

WW Freestyle- 9 points if using chicken thighs, 5 points if using chicken breast (this is just the chicken, not the sides)


Nutrition

  • Serving Size: 4 for 1 lb of chicken, 8 for 2lbs of chicken

Keywords: asian, dinner, slow cooker, chicken, gluten-free, grain-free, high protein, low-carb

    Have it printed to try out! Glad to have a recipe to help use up my Coconut Aminos. Wasn’t crazy about them on their own, but I bet they’ll and some nice sweetness (and some savory?) to this!

    This sounds amazing and I’m making it tomorrow night? Does it really only need 4 hours on low?

    I’m planning to use boneless skinless chicken breasts. Should I cook it for longer or on high? Thanks!

      I wouldn’t cook it any longer – maybe less! Do you want your chicken shredded?

    Can I use boneless chicken breast? or do you need to have the flavor of the thighs?
