Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!!  I think they wrote that saying for this recipe.  In my book, this dish has everything going for it.

It’s really, really delicious.  It has a wonderful Asian flavor yet is made with simple to find ingredients. Yay! That means I don’t have to look all over town for hard to find groceries.  Best of all, the entire family loves this dish and everyone is happy when I make it for dinner!

If you love crockpot meals, I hope you’ll try my crockpot chicken and dumplings, slow cooker chicken cacciatore, crockpot mac and cheese, and family favorite, crockpot goulash.

Do I Have To Brown The Chicken?

This recipe calls for the chicken to be browned in a skillet before you cook it in the crockpot. As much as I LOVE the “dump everything” type of crockpot recipes, this one is worth the extra step.  The browning gives the chicken a richer better flavor and better keeps the chicken in whole pieces rather than shreds.
