I love my crock pot! I have been cooking in it so often. I used to think all crock pot recipes were unhealthy…boy, was I wrong! There are many easy, nutritious and delicious one pot meals that you can make. Here is a crock pot chicken with an asian flavor! It has become my daughter’s favorite meal! She is requesting it weekly! I serve it with brown rice and broccoli! It’s good enough to put any Chinese take out restaurant to shame…and healthier for you!
Asian Honey Crock Pot Chicken
1/2 cup honey
2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
