There is nothing like the aroma of a meal cooking in the crock pot. In my working days, I walked in the door from a hard day's work to the smell of a delicious meal ready to eat. Be instantly de-stressed! The source of this recipe and photo is dedicated to slow cooking . . . check it out.
How about the combination of honey and garlic? It is one of my favorite appetizers when I order Chinese takeout. This chicken dish would be perfect with rice, steamed broccoli and a salad with rolls.
This year, I'm focusing on frugal cooking . . . lots of chicken. Another focus that goes along with frugal cooking is freezer cooking. This meal would be perfect for two meals for two people . . . freeze half to enjoy another day later in the month! I love having a great selection of meals ready to go in the freezer for those busy or lazy days.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 3 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/3 cup honey
Directions
Use a 4-quart slow cooker (if using a 6-quart, this will cook faster. Check after 3 hours on high, 5 hours on low).
Put the chicken into your cooker. In a small bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients, then pour evenly over the top.
Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
