Crockpot Sesame Chicken Recipe
I’m such a sucker for some good Chinese chicken – especially sesame chicken! I used to rely on mall food courts and takeout to satisfy my craving. Now, I just toss together this easy slow cooker recipe! Ingredients like soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and more infuse the bites of chicken breast with the most mouthwatering flavor. The best part is just how easy this recipe really is. The chicken and sauce cook together to absolute perfection and the slow cooker does all the work for you! This is an effortless dinner that my family’s pretty obsessed with. We almost never have leftovers! And of course I always serve this chicken with egg rolls and chicken fried rice!
How to Store and Reheat
Your leftovers will stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days. To reheat, just pop it in the microwave and heat for 30 seconds at a time until warmed all the way through. Take care not to dry it out!
How to Freeze
Let the sesame chicken fully cool to room temperature prior to freezing for up to 3 months. It’ll need a few hours to defrost in the fridge prior to reheating.
Notes and Tips
Try to make sure that all of the pieces of chicken are cut to the same size so it all cooks evenly. You can always add in a little cayenne or extra chili flakes for extra spice. Keep the sesame chicken in the Crockpot for up to 2 hours on the “warm” setting once it’s done cooking.
