Kona Chicken

"I have made this quite a few times over the past year. I have made just a few minor adjustments. 1) I use 2lbs of chicken breast 2) to deal with the dryness -> I cook the meal for about 5-6 hours o..." See moren low rather than high. The chicken is cooked through, but it isn't dry. 3) To give it a little more flavor -> I add at least 3 garlic cloves, although usually 5 or 6 b/c my family really loves garlic. 4) To decrease the salt -> I use 1/3 c low salt soy sauce to avoid the really salty flavor. It wasn't too salty for me, but my husband said the first time I made it that it was too salty. 5) To thicken some sauce -> I take most of the sauce out of the crock pot and put it in a skillet. I add about 1-2 teaspoons (slowly) of corn starch to thicken the sauce. This has really made the difference in my opinion. We take the sauce and put it over the chicken and rice. With all of these additions, this recipe's really good."

Since I love chicken, I was on the hunt for a recipe that would provide an interesting spin on chicken. This recipe did the trick. You just can't go wrong with this one. Do note; I suspect slow cooker cooking times vary significantly. I've noticed that my new large slow cooker seems to often cook recipes in half the time as what the recipe calls for, including this one. Be warned. Thankfully, I checked the chicken after two hours and it was DONE, and I cooked it on LOW. The sauce makes this recipe so awesome ... it almost has a sweet and sour aura about it. Have it tonight!"

"I actually cooked the chicken in the oven instead of the crock pot and it was beyond delicious. I cooked it covered for about one hour and then brushed some honey on top and cooked uncovered for about..." See more 20 minutes or until the chicken was a nice orange/brown color. My guests wouldn't leave without the recipe. Definitely a keeper!"
