Equipment

Ingredients

  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup orange marmalade
  • ½ cup sweet chili sauce

  • Cook on low for 4-5 hours or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, stirring occasionally.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, use a soup ladle to remove 2 cups of the sauce. Place in a small sauce pan and cook over medium high heat until boiling. Reduce to a simmer and let it cook until it reduces by half and has a syrupy consistency. Return caramelized sauce to the slow cooker and stir to coat chicken.*
  • Serve over white rice if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

* It's not necessary to reduce the sauce at the end, but it will give you a thicker sauce to serve with the chicken. You can also serve directly from the Crockpot without reducing the sauce.
